Re: Network Load Balancing



Won't happen.
This has to be done at a router.

If these are commercial lines (like T1s, D3, etc) this has to be a "real"
router and will be done with routing protocols. It will involve the router
at the ISP side and therefore requires that both lines come from the same
IP. Typically the ISP performs this for you.

If these are home user lines (DSL, CableTV) then this must be done with a
broadband "router" that has two WAN ports and is designed for this purpose.

Network Load Balancing in the Windows "context" is balancing "servers" as
in clustering, mirroring, whatever term your want to use and has nothing to
do with Lines and "connections".

Well lets simplifiy. Imagine I got 2 network cards on my windows server
and
each one of those cards is connected to a different ISP. I just want the
output traffic of the server ( an internet gateway for my LAN for
exemple )
to be load balanced equally between those 2 connections ... hope its
clearer
now.

Thx for your answer by the way.
