F5 had something similar too ... but if you present the load balance as a single IP that DNS points to and BGP routes to, there shouldn't be any real issue
Erik Goldoff IT Consultant Systems, Networks, & Security _____ From: Benjamin Zachary - Lists [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, June 16, 2009 5:16 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: load balancer I have a client who purchased some load balancer equipment from Peak10 to a colo in Louisville that IBM was never able to setup successfully. I brought up BigIP which is the only one I know of, but I think sometime in the past on here some mentioned like a 'hosted' load balancing company where they will handle that for them. They think this is better for them instead of fussing with it through trial and error. Any thoughts? I only played with a couple of BigIP's awhile back and they seemed easy enough but the customer had bgp and dns all setup already so maybe that's part of this client's problem Thanks ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
