Nimbostratusvirtual server and web app port
Hi, I have a question regarding the virtual server , can I use virtual server IP address with port 80 and let this virtual server point on pool which has 3 nodes running web application on port 5001. To clarify more I have done the following: from the pool from the "Resources" from the list I have selected the address of the node and then select service port to be 5001 and HTTP protocol I have successfully tested this scenario but I am not sure whether it is right or wrong? Do I need to redirect from http port 80 to http port 5001 like when we make a redirection from http to https by using irule (from 80 to 443) ?

No redirect is necessary, you have it correctly configured if you expect clients to connect on port 80. The clients will connect to the VIP on port 80. This VIP is configured to use a pool which has as members: node1:5001, node2:5001, node3:5001.

Just ensure you have Address translation and Port translation enabled in your virtual server.
