Port Hotspots | HP SuperStack 3 Load Balancer Appliance specs

Using the Web Interface 33

Device View The Device View contains a mimic of the Server Load Balancer. The device mimic is an interactive representation of the Server Load Balancer. It is periodically updated to reflect changes, particularly changes made to the status of its ports. This view is used to configure fundamental system and port operating parameters. To configure server load balancing, cache redirection and other features, use the Logical View.

While the Device View allows you to configure using the graphical user interface, there are some features that can only be configured from the Navigation Tree.

You can setup the Server Load Balancer by two methods; through the Navigation Tree or by clicking on the following device mimic "hotspots":

■Port Hotspots

Each port on the mimic, including the console port, is a "hotspot". Click a port to open a pop-up menu that contains operations which you can launch for that particular port.

■Unit Hotspot

The non-port area of the mimic is a "hotspot". Click anywhere on this area to open a pop-up menu that contains operations which you can launch for the Server Load Balancer as a whole.
