    Description

    Back Channel Communication

    Specify a communications channel over which the cluster members maintain the integrity of the cluster. For example, this TCP channel is used to detect members when they join or leave the cluster. A small percentage of this TCP traffic is used to help cluster members determine which cluster member can handle a request more efficiently. This backchannel must not be confused with IP address/port over which cluster members provide proxy requests to peer cluster members.

    • Port: Specify the TCP port of the backchannel on all Identity Servers in the cluster. 7901 is the default TCP port.

    • Encrypt: Encrypts the content of the messages sent between cluster members.
