AltostratusView Connection Server Config with UAG
The guides for load balancing Unified Access Gateway have quite a bit of detail regarding the DMZ based components. My question is regarding the right-side of this configuration from the deployment ...

NimbostratusHi Jay,
I have similar question. I found this guide: http://docs.hol.vmware.com/HOL-2017/hol-1759-use-3_html_en/
There is a newer version if you login to Vmware HOL - http://labs.hol.vmware.com/HOL/catalogs/lab/3675
I'm wondering if there is a way to load balance both UAG and Connection servers within the same LTM, given that both UAG and Connction server nodes will have their own VIPs. How is you setup, did you have luck setting it up?

NimbostratusThanks R Marc, Here is how I want to make it work, and wondering if your setup is similar.
All our clients will connect to VM desktop/app through UAGs VIP (external IP). This is because we do not trust our internal clients to directly connect to connection severs. So all clients will establish connections as follows:
client-> UAGs cluster VIP -> Connection server cluster VIP ->VM desktop/app
Our UAGs and Conn severs are on separate subnets, so having them on the same LTM seems OK, and you confirmed this too.
I'm also willing to use iApp for both - 1 iApp for UAG, and 1 for Connection servers, basically load balancing both clusters. The guides i have shared before - http://docs.hol.vmware.com/HOL-2017/hol-1759-use-3_html_en/ talk about LB for either UAG, or Connection servers, but not the case when I want to do both via separate iApps, and have this work.
Wondering if the above is supported approach, although i see no reason this to be an issue. What's your take?
