Steve, perhaps I am not correctly understanding how your product works, but
as best I can tell it would have the same limitation in regard to load
balancing i.e. it would not be able to load balance RIS clients by
distributing them in a "round robin" fashion to multiple NICs of the same
RIS server. Please let me know if this is not the case as we would be very
interested in a product that could accomplish this. Thanks.
