Multi-Site Scenario
Last updated
Last updated
This scenario is suited for environments where published resources are distributed between two or more physical locations. Different administrators can administer a Parallels RAS farm containing multiple sites.
Each site consists of at least a RAS Connection Broker, RAS Secure Gateway (or multiple Secure Gateways), and agents installed on RD Session Host or VDI servers, or Windows PCs.
Note: To add high availability for HALB, a second appliance can be deployed in each site.
If the resource set is similar, end users can use both sites via a single RAS connection. The following settings should be used as RAS connection properties in Parallels Client:
Primary connection: local Primary Secure Gateway.
Secondary connections:
Local Secondary Secure Gateway.
HALB VS IP address of Site2.
Primary connection – local Primary Secure Gateway
Secondary connections:
Local Secondary Secure Gateway
HALB VS IP address of Site1
Primary connection - HALB VS IP address of Site1
Secondary connections - HALB VS IP address of Site2
RAS connection settings can be configured either centrally (via Client Policy in the Parallels RAS Console) or manually.
RAS Connection Broker is installed using the Parallels RAS installer (standard installation).
HALB is installed as a ready-to-use virtual appliance and configured in HALB VS properties.
All other components are push-installed from the RAS console.
