Add on-premises servers to the vServer group

Overview

This topic describes how to create a vServer group and then add on-premises servers to the vServer group. A vServer group is a group of Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances or on-premises servers. If you associate a vServer group with a listener, the listener distributes requests only to backend servers in the vServer group.
