Does HAproxy Work Internally?

Hi again,

I recently mentioned in another post that i setup a lab in virtualbox with two IIS webservers and a windows 10 machine all on the same netw the servork (192.168.200.XXX).

If i access the website from the win 10 machine, if i access the monitoring page of HAproxy my sessions and the data always stay zero.

They are set up using http and layer 4, if i shut the servers or disable IIS HAproxy notices the servers are down, but I’m still getting no stats. I don’t have external access setup to the site, only internal.

For example one server is 192.168.200.2 and the other .3 with bindings to the websites and AD DNS records. I’m beginning to think that perhaps this doesn’t work internally?.

Any advice please, as I’m really stuck!. Really appreciate your help
