Re: SV: Re: Firewall load balacing switches

I personally really like the ASA (as I liked the PIX before the ASA was 
available). But the Active-Active implementation in the ASA/PIX is far 
away of what people expect from a load-balancing solution.
Or more precise: Active-Active is *not* load-balancing.
