Enable load balancing for a cluster if you want to scale the HTTP services without targeting a particular Avaya Breeze® platform server. All the requests are sent to the cluster IP address. When you enable load balancing, two Avaya Breeze® platform servers are chosen as the active and standby load balancing servers. The active load balancer distributes the HTTP requests to all the other servers in the cluster in a round robin fashion.
The following cluster attributes must be configured for HTTP load balancing:
Name |

HTTP Load Balancer backend server max failure response timeout period (seconds) |

Network connection timeout to HTTP Load Balancer backend server (seconds) |
