Hi,
I currently am running (unfortunately) a Microsoft NLB cluster which is of
course causing some severe network performance issues on my companies corporate
maintained switch (which they are not very happy about).
I was looking to possibly get rid of the NLB and replace it with a
zenloadbalancer configuration. My question is that obviously this is based on
a linux core, has it been tested as a frontend for IIS web servers ?
And secondly , if I setup the cluster configuration, what traffic will be
produced on the front channel that potentially could cause network issues
(specifically unicast or multicast traffic that could storm the switch). From
what I read it shouldn't cause any issues, and it looks like if I run a x-over
cable between the two it can use that to keep in touch and only 1 device is
ever active, but I wanted to ask before I start down this road what impacts I
might see.
I have run Linux-HA in the past but only on a segregated network and only for
SSH so the traffic was very minimal and thus I wouldn't have seen any issues
like potentially here on the http cluster.
Any comments/suggestions ?
Thanks,
Dave
