Hi i want to know if some folks from openbsd (or others) have a solution for L7 failover. more precisely, what are good solutions for a proxy (be it, http, ftp, smtp, or else; transparent or not) to have active/active failover or active/passive but in all case keep sessions ? or best is to use dedicated load-balancer to do it (alteon, F5, and co ...) ?
for people who use CARP in production, do you alse made a HA solution for L7 ? or only L4 ? (be it on same or different servers) not find much on google, except LVS http://www.austintek.com/LVS/LVS-HOWTO/HOWTO/LVS-HOWTO.L7_switch.html an interesting one on SIP failover http://www.cs.columbia.edu/techreports/cucs-011-04.pdf and commercial products ? http://www.bluecoat.com/products/sg800/features.html thanks Regards Julien
