Full LAB Architecture: SSL Offloader, Radware Load Balancer & FortiWeb WAF

Full LAB Architecture: SSL Offloader, Radware Load Balancer & FortiWeb WAF | Complete Traffic Flow Explained Welcome to this in-depth technical walkthrough where I demonstrate three different deployment options for integrating an SSL Offloader, Radware Load Balancer, and FortiWeb Web Application Firewall (WAF) in a real-world lab environment. In this video, I explain end-to-end traffic flow, device placement, and security inspection logic using a practical LAB setup that includes: 🔹 IIS Web Server (Windows) 🔹 DVWA Linux Application Server 🔹 Palo Alto Perimeter Firewall 🔹 Microsoft ADCS – Certificate Server 🔹 Radware Alteon / SSL Offloader 🔹 Radware Load Balancer / WAF 🔹 FortiWeb WAF 📘 What You’ll Learn in This Video ✔️ How SSL Offloading works in a secure network ✔️ Multiple deployment options for Radware + FortiWeb ✔️ Traffic flow between clients ⇒ perimeter firewall ⇒ SSL device ⇒ WAF ⇒ Application ✔️ End-to-end certificate handling using ADCS ✔️ How DVWA/IIS server responds through LB & WAF ✔️ Option-wise architecture breakdown including: Option 1: Radware as a standalone SSL Offloader Option 2: Radware Offloader + FortiWeb WAF inline Option 3: Radware acting as both Load Balancer + SSL Offloader + FortiWeb WAF inspection 🧩 LAB Topology Includes 🌐 Client System 🔥 Palo Alto Firewall (Perimeter) 🔐 SSL Offloader ⚖️ Radware Load Balancer 🛡️ FortiWeb WAF 📄 IIS & DVWA Application Servers 🏢 ADCS Certificate Authority All subnets, interfaces, and routing paths are explained clearly to help you understand how real-time enterprise traffic typically flows through security layers. 🔔 Who Should Watch This Video? ✔️ Network Security Engineers ✔️ Load Balancer Engineers ✔️ WAF / Application Security Professionals ✔️ DevSecOps Engineers ✔️ Students learning SSL Offloading or WAF deployment ✔️ Anyone preparing for Radware / Fortinet / Palo Alto projects 💬 Have Questions?
