If you have more than one Directory server on your system, but you do not want users to be redirected to another server when they log on to Security Center, you can bypass the load balancing.

What you should know

When you have more than one Directory server on your system, load balancing is automatically in effect. This means that every time a user logs on to Security Center, the Directory Manager redirects their logon request to the next Directory server in the list, based on the server that the previous user connected to.

You can bypass the load balancing behavior on specific workstations (applied to Config Tool and Security Desk), which is helpful when a client is on a remote LAN.

Procedure

  1. From the homepage, click Options > General.
  2. Select the Disable Directory redirection option.
  3. Click Save.
