We just recently took a look at the VMware Horizon 8 Upgrade of the Connection Server.

VPod Router | ESXi01 6.5.0 U1 | Control Center | vCenter Server 6.With the release of VMware Horizon, many are no doubt revisiting their Horizon infrastructure looking at updates across the board.

Note that the vPodRouter does not have a NIC on the internal network and thus cannot route external traffic to resources on the internal network. The internal and transit networks are NATed to the SE-UCS-Network for outbound internet connectivity while the DMZ network routes through the vPod Router for inbound and outbound access. The vApp networks (internal, DMZ, and transit) are created within the vApp. This is not usually the case when working with users in a live environment.Īt the bottom of the diagram is the vApp network required to support the environment. Note: In this example, the vCenter setup is hosted in a nested template. In addition, ports 4 are forwarded to the Unified Access Gateway server over the respective ports. Ports 4000-6500 are reserved for the environment components so all traffic coming in on these ports is forwarded to the appropriate Edge Service for the Unified Access Gateway server. In this environment, external requests to the vApp are sent to the vPod Router, which directs those requests to the appropriate resource, based on the incoming port. The following table shows how the session affinity and distribution algorithms differ for each Unified Access Gateway service.Īt the top of the diagram is vCenter Networking.

All connections with the same source IP address are sent to the same Unified Access Gateway node.
