Configuring a virtual server
Virtual server defines the network interface and IP address where traffic destined for a server pool arrives. When the FortiWeb appliance receives traffic destined for a virtual server, it can then forward the traffic to an AD FS server.
To configure a virtual server
- Go to Server Objects > Server > Virtual Server.
- Click Create New.
- Configure these settings:
- Click OK.

Enter the IP address and subnet of the virtual server. The IP address should be the public IP address of the AD FS service. Note: If a policy uses any virtual servers with IPv6 addresses, FortiWeb does not apply features in the policy that do not yet support IPv6, even if you include them in the policy. |
| Interface |
Select the network interface the virtual server is bound to and where traffic destined for the virtual server arrives. To configure an interface, go to Network > Interface.
