Configuring the BIG-IP LTM for the vFabric SQLFire locator and
WAN gateway services
Next, we configure the BIG-IP LTM for the vFabric SQLFire locator and
WAN gateway services in each location.
Creating the pool
In this procedure, we create the load balancing pool.
To create the pool
1. On the Main tab, expand Local Traffic, and then click Pools.
2. Click the Create button. The New Pool screen opens.
3. In the Name box, type a name for your pool. We type vfabric-pool.
4. In the Health Monitors section, gateway_icmp, and click the Add
(<<) button.
5. From the Load Balancing Method list, choose your preferred load
balancing method (different load balancing methods may yield
optimal results for a particular network).
In our example, we select Least Connections (node).
6. In this pool, we leave the Priority Group Activation Disabled.
7. In the New Members section, make sure the New Address option
button is selected.
8. In the Address box, type the IP address of one of the servers. In our
example, we use 10.133.58.51.
9. In the Service Port box, type 9001.
10. Click the Add button to add the member to the list.
11. Repeat steps 8-10 for each server you want to add to the pool.
12. Click the Finished button.
Creating the TCP profiles
The next task is to create the TCP profiles. We recommend configuring
LAN and WAN optimized TCP profiles.
To create a new TCP profile
1. On the Main tab, expand Local Traffic, and then click Profiles.
The HTTP Profiles screen opens.
2. On the Menu bar, from the Protocol menu, click tcp.
3. Click the Create button.

type tcp-wan-vfabric.
