External Loadbalancer for ESS/MSS

[Former Member]

  Hello,

We are trying to achieve the below architecture .

User--> Radware external Load balancer--> webdisp1 (for EP) --> EP

                                                           --> webdisp2 (for ECC) -->ECC.

users will first hit the radware loadbalancer on 443 and Request will be decrypted and send forward as HTTP request to webdispacther 1 , this will communicate with EP portal.

Then for ESS MSS users i  have configured webdispatcher2 which will talk to ECC>

When i directly hit WD1 without load balancer everything works fine.

When we configure it through load balancer, the ECC page doest not show up

On observing the HTTP trace , the second request for ECC is not reached till loadbalancer.

Kindly help

You need to configure HTTPURLLOC in ECC so that URLs are generated to point to the external LB. Also on the external LB make sure it is passes clienthost and clientprotocol to WD which should by default pass it to the connected SAP system.

Hello Samuli,

Thanks for you reply,

I have set the URL of the LB in the connector of EP portal ( making sure the next hit for ECC is made to LB)

But still no luck 😞

Can you please elaborate on HTTPURLLOC ?

Thanks,

HTTPURLLOC controls how URLs are being generated in the backend system, in your case ECC. See for details.
