Required Setup

The following diagram illustrates the sample setup that was used for the configuration steps.

This setup has the following features:

  • The Citrix Netscaler SSL terminator is configured to load balance (it provides the L4 switch functionality) and to offload the SSL traffic.

  • Identity Servers and Access Gateways are accessible only through the SSL terminator via HTTP.

  • Identity Servers and Access Gateways communicate to each other through the SSL terminator.

  • Identity Server cluster is configured to use HTTP on port 80. For information about translating the default 8080 port to 80, see Translating Identity Server Configuration Port in the NetIQ Access Manager 5.0 Installation and Upgrade Guide.
