Discussion

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.

Check Content

Review the <'INSTALL PATH'>\conf\httpd.conf file.

Verify the "mod_proxy" is loaded.

If it does not exist, this is a finding.

If the "mod_proxy" module is loaded and the "ProxyPass" directive is not configured, this is a finding.

Fix Text

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

Set the "ProxyPass" directive.

Restart the Apache service.
