AS24-W1-000700 - An Apache web server that is part of a web server cluster must route all remote management through a centrally managed access control point - mod_proxy

Information

A web server cluster is a group of independent Apache web servers that are managed as a single system for higher availability, easier manageability, and greater scalability. Without having centralized control of the web server cluster, management of the cluster becomes difficult. It is critical that remote management of the cluster be done through a designated management system acting as a single access point.

Solution

Edit the <'INSTALL PATH'>\conf\httpd.conf file and load the 'mod_proxy' module.

Set the 'ProxyPass' directive.

Restart the Apache service.
