System Requirements for Yeastar Load Balancer
Yeastar provides a dedicated Load Balancer to enable high availability for SBC servers in environments that do not offer native load balancing services. This topic provides the requirements necessary for the deployments of Yeastar Load Balancer.
- 10.0.0.0/8
- 172.16.0.0/12 (excluding the
172.17.x.xand172.19.x.xIP address ranges) - 192.168.0.0/16
Deployment environment requirement
To deploy the Yeastar Load Balancer, ensure the following environment conditions are met:
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Firmware |
To work properly with the Yeastar Load Balancer, the following servers must be running the required firmware versions.
|
| Network | The Load Balancer and SBC servers must reside in the same subnet to ensure seamless traffic flow. |
| Routing function | Policy-based routing can be configured between the load balancer and SBC servers to ensure proper traffic forwarding and failover handling. |
Hardware requirement
The server hosting the Yeastar Load Balancer should meet the following minimum requirements.
