On of the best hardware tools to Load Balance with is F5's Big IP. They are
easily scalable and can load balance as many servers as you have switch
space for. It far surpasses Alteon in the way it load balances...
If you are interested in a demo email Janeen at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and she
will set it up...
Thanks,
Robert
