For more information, see Use a firewall between the Controller and a Load Generator and Use a firewall between the Controller and a Monitoring Agent.ħ100 or configured as explained in Add Load Generators To use NeoLoad with a firewall, it may prove necessary to open some ports on the network interface of the Controller, Load Generator, and Monitoring Agent. For more information, see Use a firewall between the Controller and a Load Generator. You may change all these default settings by editing the Controller or Agent configurations. One UDP port must be defined for the Agent to allow the Controller to discover the Load Generators on the network. Three ports need to be opened: one for the Agent, one for the Load Generator, and one for the Controller. Since the Controller and Agent communicate with each other, any intervening firewall must be correctly configured.

For more information, see Manage the Load Generator Agent. If you decide otherwise, you will need to start the Agent. This default setting is usually the most appropriate.

Neoload 9 install#

NeoLoad default setting is to both install the Agent as a service and run it on start up. As previously shown, it is always started through the Agent.ĭuring the Load Generator installation process, the wizard asks you whether the Agent should be run as a service and if it should be run on start up.

Refer to the previous diagram for a better understanding of NeoLoad deployment and license key requirements.Īlso, keep in mind that a Load Generator is never launched manually. You can have one Controller and as many Load Generators as you need.

The NeoLoad license key operates on a per-Controller basis. The installation process closely resembles that of the Controller, the main difference being that you do not need to enter a license key. The Agent is responsible for launching the Load Generator executable and for informing the Controller that a Load Generator is present on the machine. The Load Generator actually comes with an additional executable called the Agent. The Controller comes with its own built-in Load Generator. The Controller also manages the Load Generators, controlling them and delegating the running of the scenario to them. The Controller provides NeoLoad main GUI, letting you design and launch scenarios and analyze their results.

The latter, the Load Generator does the actual job of running a scenario by sending the requests it defines. NeoLoad provides two main and distinct applications, the NeoLoad Controller and the Load Generator. Use additional Load Generators Use additional Load Generators
