Enter the virtual server's floating IP address in this text field.
Virtual IP Network Mask
Set the netmask for this virtual server with the drop-down menu.
Firewall Mark
Do not enter a firewall mark integer value in this field unless you are bundling multi-port
protocols or creating a multi-port virtual server for separate, but related protocols. In this
example, the above virtual server has a Firewall Mark of 80 because we are bundling
connections to HTTP on port 80 and to HTTPS on port 443 using the firewall mark value of
80. When combined with persistence, this technique will ensure users accessing both
insecure and secure webpages are routed to the same real server, preserving state.
Warning
Entering a firewall mark in this field allows IPVS to recognize that packets
bearing this firewall mark are treated the same, but you must perform further
configuration outside of the Piranha Configuration Tool to actually assign the
firewall marks. See
creating multi-port services and
available FTP virtual server.
Device
Enter the name of the network device to which you want the floating IP address defined the
Virtual IP Address field to bind.
You should alias the public floating IP address to the Ethernet interface connected to the
public network. In this example, the public network is on the
should be entered as the device name.
Re-entry Time
Enter an integer value which defines the length of time, in seconds, before the active LVS
router attempts to bring a real server back into the pool after a failure.
Service Timeout
Enter an integer value which defines the length of time, in seconds, before a real server is
considered dead and removed from the pool.
Quiesce server
When the Quiesce server radio button is selected, anytime a new real server node comes
online, the least-connections table is reset to zero so the active LVS router routes requests
as if all the real servers were freshly added to the pool. This option prevents the a new
server from becoming bogged down with a high number of connections upon entering the
pool.
