Health Check Tracking: Click one of the following options:

NOTE

If any service port is down for a real server, the Brocade Virtual ADX does not consider the
track port group or track port configuration on the real server for load balancing. You must
configure every port in a track port group or track port configuration to be “sticky” and
bind them to the real server.

Track Group: Allows the Brocade Virtual ADX to send client requests for applications
within a group of up to eight ports to the same real server, regardless of which
application the client requests first. Whenever a client attempts to connect to a port
within the port group, the Brocade Virtual ADX ensures that all ports in the group are
active before granting the connection.

Track Port: Allows the Brocade Virtual ADX to send all client requests for a specific set
of TCP or UDP ports to the same real server as a master TCP or UDP port grouped with
up to four other ports. The tracking applies only to the master port.

None: Disables track group and track port health check tracking. By default, health
check tracking is disabled.

Master Port: For the Track Port option only, choose the port as the master port.

Track Ports: For the Track Group option, choose up to eight TCP or UDP ports. A port can be
part of only one track port group. For the Track Port option, choose up to four TCP or UDP
ports.
