I use one for load balancing between two IIS servers. One server in Jersey
and one in Richmond VA. Basically a www request gets forwarded to the Dis
Dir. by the DNS server and then the "router" picks either of the two servers
at random to send the user to the intranet home page. The servers are
replicated with Veritas replication exec at the www level so they have the
same web content. The director polls each of the servers every 20 secs on
port 80 to confirm that web content is available. If one of the servers is
down then the user is always forwarded to the server that is up.
I have the older version though. I believe there is a lot more
functionality to the newer models.
