F5 is the brand that I prefer, they're also generally the most expensive. The Kemp's do a good job and are priced very competitively. If all you're doing is Exchange and nothing complex I can't imagine why you'd need high end devices.
Thanks, Brian Desmond [email protected] w - 312.625.1438 | c - 312.731.3132 From: Paul Hutchings [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, October 03, 2011 7:48 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Load Balancers? I'm starting to think and plan for adding a second Exchange 2010 server and setting up a DAG and CAS array. I know of Kemp, but I'm not familiar with any other vendor when it comes to load balancers. Obviously I can whack it into Google (and have) but on the face of it they all do what I currently want. Any personal recommendations (or nightmares) would be great. A virtual load balancer also sounds like an option as we have a vSphere cluster that should be able to run a pair of appliances in HA.
