Yeah, so why bother? As long as load balancers don't have GigE ports, I can't use them and have to use something like Resonate. Besides, LBs don't do site-site load balancing. If you want to do distributed load sharing then there really isn't much choice. Personally, I don't see benefits of LBs that proper clustering wont give you. Component clusters work well, much better than simple LB will give you. > From: tony bourke: Friday, July 07, 2000 8:01 AM > > you can do EtherChannel for more than 100 Mbps, but we all > know how well > that works. > > Tony > > On Fri, 7 Jul > 2000, Roeland M.J.
