Re: Load Balancing DNS

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi Herb that's what I said in previous post (Create two A records with the
same name and different IpAddress, then map CNAME for one that A records,
has the A records have the same name the Round and Robin will work, right?)
Did you read ?

He needs Round and robin for two different servers....

Ok I wil try and mail you after i get my result..
Thanks & Regards

CNAMES are NOT used for load balancing, i.e., Round Robin.

CNAMEs would give you multiple NAMES for a single
computer name.

You need A records for Round Robin: Multiple ADDRESSES
for the SAME name.

Hi
Right click in the Domain folder (Under Dns Forward LookUp Zones) and
choose new -> Alias (CNAME).

For example:
You have a domain named: Domain.com, right click the domain name and
choose new Alias, then in the first textbox write App, then choose the
target host, as I aready mention you shoul coose one of the 2 A records
created (AppServer.domain.com)

Hi

- Create two A records with the same name and different IpAddress
(Example: AppServer.domain.com-192.168.0.1,
AppServer.domain.com-192.168.0.2)

- Create a CNAME (Canonical Name) that points to the A record
(AppServer.domain.com), note you only need to add the alias name, for
example: your domain is domain.com, and the app is refered by App,
then your alias should be App, it stays (App.domain.com)

- To enable round and robin, right click dns server choose properties,
advanced tab and choose enable round and robin.

That should do the job.
