How to setup an SMTPS Virtual Service setup on the LoadMaster

Environment:

Product: LoadMaster

Version: Any

Platform: Any

Application: SMTPS

Question/Problem Description:

Want to know how to configure a secure SMTPS virtual service.

Steps to Reproduce:  
Error Message:  
Defect Number:  
Enhancement Number:  
Cause:  
Resolution:

1. SMTPS traffic must encrypted the entire way through, so you would need to create a virtual service on port 587, and set the service type as "Generic".

 

2. No SSL Acceleration needs to be enabled for SMTPS, as it should work straight through without the need for the loadmaster to either decrypt or manipulate the traffic at all.

3. You can then add the SMTPS server over port 587

4. It is recommended to try telnetting to the service to confirm that it is accepting requests using the following command.

"telnet 10.67.49.169 587"
