RE: LoadBalancing products: Foundry ServerIron

["Sutantyo, Danny" <danny.sutantyo () intel com>]

But if you take a look at the server itself (the log) it's not really load
balancing, I use 'least conn' instead of 'round robin', and I thought the
diff between 430 and 416 is just how many NIC card you can attach to the
LD...

It depends which Local Director. The 430 is screaming fast and the 416
in conjunction with a 6509 and ASLB is very fast too. I have been using
both solutions at customers sites with peak traffic of around a million
hits per day.
