When prompted, confirm that you want to upgrade the Equalizer software. The script
will then install the software update and reboot the system.
Shutting Down Equalizer
You can shut down Equalizer from the configuration utility. Note that shutting down
Equalizer does not automatically commit configuration changes. To shut down:
1.
In the Equalizer Configuration Menu window, select option 9, Shutdown, and press
ENTER.
2.
When the shutdown process completes, it's safe to power off the system.
Geographic Load Balancing Configuration
If you are configuring Equalizer to use Envoy for geographic load balancing, you also
need to configure your authoritative name server to delegate authority to the Envoy sites.
If you are using Envoy with firewalled networks, you also need to configure the firewalls
to allow traffic between Envoy sites, and between the Equalizer and clients.
Configuring the Authoritative Name Server to Query Envoy
The authoritative nameserver(s) for the domains that are to be geographically load
balanced must be configured to delegate authority to the Envoy sites. Each of the fully-
qualified subdomains to be balanced need to be delegated.
