Connection Groups

The Communication Agent, and then Configuration, and then Connection Groups page provides the means to group Communication Agent Connections for the purpose of traffic load balancing. The Connection Group page lists the Connection Groups available and the servers within that group.

There is at least one, and can be up to three, predefined Connection Groups.

A Connection Group can be associated with many peer servers. These peer servers can be Remote Servers or they can be on routable remote networks. A Connection Group can have up to 16 Remote Servers that are associated to a local MP.

The Communication Agent, and then Configuration, and then Connection Groups page provides the means to manage Connection Groups:
  • Select a Connection Group and then click Edit to modify the list of servers in that Connection Group. Any Remote Server can be in the Connection Group.
