The following table shows how the session affinity and distribution algorithms differ for each Unified Access Gateway service.Īt the top of the diagram is vCenter Networking.

Least Connection Mode with High Availability - Sends a new connection request to the Unified Access Gateway node with the fewest number of current connections from the clients.

The high availability and load distribution occurs among the nodes in the cluster configured with the same Group ID.

When the Unified Access Gateway holding the virtual IP address fails, the virtual IP address is reassigned automatically to one of the nodes available in the cluster.

Round Robin Mode with High Availability - Distributes incoming connection requests across the group of Unified Access Gateway nodes sequentially.

All connections with the same source IP address are sent to the same Unified Access Gateway node.

Source IP Affinity - Maintains the affinity between the client connection and Unified Access Gateway node.

Unified Access Gateway high availability supports up to 10,000 concurrent connections in the cluster using a combination of traffic distribution methods:
