Basic Configuration Information

The Traffic Manager receives traffic from the Internet, makes decisions based on the traffic source, destination and content, and chooses a group of back-end servers to handle the traffic. Traffic is balanced across this group according to the network resources.

In a traffic management system, you configure a virtual server object to manage connections from remote clients, and configure a pool object to manage connections to your local servers.

Once you have installed and configured your Traffic Manager system on the network, you can access the Admin UI to set up a pool and a virtual server.
