This tab enables monitoring or running Vusers over a firewall. It also allows you to select a connection profile for communication between the load generator and the MI Listener or the Data Hub.

To access, click Controller toolbar > Load Generators button > Add > More .

Important:

- If the load generator is connected, you cannot change values in this tab. To disconnect a load generator, select it in the Load Generators dialog box and click Disconnect. The load generator status changes to Down, and you can change the settings.
- If the load generator is localhost, this tab is disabled.
