This section explains the distribution of requests with the redirector.

You can use this functionality only when you use the Web server integration functionality. To distribute requests, you must define distribution for the host on which the Web server or the redirector is running.

The following table describes the organization of this section:

Table 4-2 Organization of this section (Distributing requests with the Web server (redirector))

Category	Title	Reference
Description	Mechanism of request distribution with the redirector	4.2.1
	User-defined file for setting the request distribution method (When the Smart Composer functionality is used)	4.2.2
	User-defined file for setting the request distribution method (When the Smart Composer functionality is not used)	4.2.3
Notes	Points to be considered during Web server integration	4.2.4

Note:

There is no description of Implementation, Settings, and Operations for this functionality.

Note that the required definitions differ according to the type of the Web server used. Also, if the type of the Web server used is Cosminexus HTTP Server, the definitions also differ according to the type of the functionality used for the system building. The following table lists the types of Web servers and the definitions to be used:
