Summary of Steps to Set Up a Load Balancer for an HTTP Connection

About this task

To set up a load balancer for an HTTP connection:

Set up an HTTP monitor to monitor the HTTP adapter ports.
Match the value in the Send String/Receive String in the load balancer with the values in the Adapter HTTP Ping response and Ping URI fields in the adapter definition.
In the Send String field, type the following text:
```
GET pingURI HTTP/1.1
```
Following is a sample entry:
```
GET /pingResponse HTTP/1.1
```
In the Receive String field, type the value of the HTTP ping response. Following is a example entry:
```
pingResponse
```
Provide a dummy user name and password. This information is not used to authenticate the user. It is used so the load balancer sends HTTP headers to Secure Proxy. You can use any dummy user ID and password.
