You can configure an on demand router (ODR) to determine how it handles failure
scenarios and tunes certain work requests. You can configure the connections and requests to the
application server, configure the requests that must be rejected, define how error responses are
handled, and specify the location of the proxy logs. The configuration of the ODR in the DMZ is not
supported.
Before you begin
You must first create an ODR, a proxy with advanced capabilities that Intelligent Management uses to route work to application server nodes. For more
information, read about creating ODRs.
About this task
You can define the configuration of the ODR by editing its proxy configuration. Define the
configuration further by clicking . Note that the configuration of the ODR in the DMZ is not supported.
To configure
ODRs to perform a SSL offload, read about configuring SSL offload for all HTTPS traffic.
For information on other custom properties, read about on demand router system and custom
properties.
Procedure
- Configure the ODRs. For more information, read about proxy server settings and refer to the
overview of custom error page policy. The Intelligent Management-specific
field for Compression Policy information follows.
- Compression Policy. Check Enable to enable the compression of the HTTP response message
body before sending it to the client. Choices include:
Option |
Description |
gzip-only |
Compress the response using the gzip compression mechanism. The response is compressed only
if it is acceptable to the client, based on the Accept-Encoding request header. |
deflate-only |
Compress the response using the deflate compression mechanism. The response is compressed
only if it is acceptable to the client, based on the Accept-Encoding request header. |
auto-only |
Use either gzip, deflate, or no compression as determined by the client preference. |
What to do next
After you create and configure the ODR and apply any configuration parameters, you can
define the ability to route work to nodes that are not a part of your
Intelligent Management environment.
