How should you configure PSM for SSH to support load balancing?

Aby using a network load balancer

Bin PVWA > Options > PSM for SSH Proxy > Servers

Cin PVWA > Options > PSM for SSH Proxy > Servers > VIP

Dby editing sshd.config on the all the PSM for SSH servers

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

The correct statement about using the AllowedSafes platform parameter is that it prevents the Central Policy Manager (CPM) from scanning all safes, restricting it to scan only safes that match the AllowedSafes configuration. This parameter is crucial in large-scale deployments where efficiency and resource management are key. By specifying which safes the CPM should manage, unnecessary scanning of irrelevant safes is avoided, thus optimizing the CPM's performance and reducing the load on the CyberArk environment. This configuration can be found in the platform management section of the CyberArk documentation.

Wait, D? Editing sshd.config seems risky.

I think A could work too, but not the best option.

Definitely B, that's where you set it up.

I definitely recall that we shouldn't be editing sshd.config directly for PSM, so I think that option is out.

I'm a bit confused; I thought load balancing was more about network configurations, so I'm not sure if the answer is related to the PVWA settings.

I feel like I practiced a question similar to this, and I think the answer might be about using the VIP setting in the Servers section.

I think I remember that configuring PSM for SSH involves some settings in the PVWA, but I'm not sure if it's specifically under Options or somewhere else.

I'm a bit confused. The question mentions configuring PSM, but option D talks about editing the sshd.config file. I'm not sure if that's the right approach for load balancing in PSM. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Okay, I've got this. The key is using a network load balancer, which is option A. That's the standard way to load balance SSH connections across multiple PSM for SSH servers.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I know we need to configure PSM for SSH to support load balancing, but I'm not familiar with the PVWA interface. Maybe I should review the PSM documentation again before answering.

I think the answer is C. The question specifically mentions configuring PSM for SSH to support load balancing, and the PVWA options for the SSH Proxy servers and VIP seem like the right place to do that.

Ah, I see. The key is that we need to configure the PSM for SSH to work with the load balancer. I think B is the way to go.

Wait, I'm a bit confused. Isn't load balancing usually done at the network level? I'm not sure if the PVWA is the right place for that.

I'm just picturing someone trying to load balance SSH connections by yelling at each server individually. 'Hey, you! Take this connection!'

B looks promising, but I bet the VIP settings in C are where the magic happens for load balancing. That's my guess!

Haha, D is like trying to put out a forest fire with a squirt gun. Load balancing with sshd.config? No thanks!

D sounds like it could work, but I'm not sure if editing the sshd.config on all the servers is the best approach for load balancing. Seems like a lot of manual work.

I think the correct answer is C. The configuration for load balancing is done in the PVWA under the PSM for SSH Proxy settings, specifically in the Servers > VIP section.
