    Field

    Description

    Cluster Communication Backchannel

    Specify a communications channel over which the cluster members maintain the integrity of the cluster. For example, this TCP channel is used to detect new cluster members as they join the cluster, and to detect members that leave the cluster. A small percentage of this TCP traffic is used to help cluster members determine which cluster member can handle a request more efficiently. This back channel must not be confused with the IP address/port over which cluster members provide proxy requests to peer cluster members.

    • Port: Specify the TCP port of the cluster back channel on all Identity Servers in the cluster. 7901 is the default TCP port.

    • Encrypt: Encrypts the content of the messages that are sent between cluster members.
