In the following example deployment, the PingDirectory server is deployed in a third, centrally-located data center.
The directory servers in the central city is assigned to a new location named central. The proxies use StartTLS to communicate with the directory servers in the central region.
Note:
Other than the ability to add to the PingDirectoryProxy server’s trust store, the prepare-external-server tool does not alter the PingDirectoryProxy server configuration in any way.
The PingDirectoryProxy server itself, installed on
proxy-east-01.example.com
, remains in the east location. This example
reconfigures load balancing between the six directory servers in these locations:
ds-east-01.example.com
ds-east-02.example.com
ds-west-01.example.com
ds-west-02.example.com
ds-central-01.example.com
ds-central-02.example.com
