Secure East-West Traffic with the VM-Series Firewall

Secure East-West Traffic with the VM-Series Firewall
The following example shows you how to deploy your VM-Series firewall to secure the application or database
servers on your network. This scenario is relevant to you if you have two NetScaler VPX instances, where one
instance authenticates users and terminates SSL connections and then load balances requests to the DMZ
servers and the other VPX instance load balances connections to the corporate servers that host the application
and database servers on your network.
Topology Before Adding the VM-Series Firewall
The communication between the servers in the DMZ and the servers in the corporate datacenter is processed
by both instances of the NetScaler VPX. For content that resides in the corporate datacenter, a new request
in handed off to the other instance of the NetScaler VPX which forwards the request to the appropriate server.
