You are correct. In the post you made today you simply said that SSL load balancing wasn't working and you didn't mention keepalives. I thought you meant that you weren't even able to get SSL load balancing to work correctly. We are still using pings for keepalives which works fine if your syst

I asked Nortel/Alteon how there web switches compare with Coyotepoint, this is what they sent me. If you feel like filling in what Aeropoint can do, feel free. I thought it was cool that it can do SSL load balancing. The other thing about coyote only having 2 ports, ports go bad a lot on web devic

You're right, the Cisco/Arrowpoint box doesn't do this very well, either. We're not using SSL acceleration yet, but we're currently redesigning that part of the network to include it. I don't know if there are any boxes that can do URL testing easily. I believe there are some that support scrip

That's interesting. We've been using the Arrowpoint switch for load-balancing with sticky SSL sessions for over a year now and have had no problems at all. However, we're going to be replacing that box with two of something-or-other, we just haven't decided on what yet. John >>> "sam sneed"

First off, failover takes close to a minute which is a lot more than Cisco advertises(in HA config). Second they're supposed to provide for load balancing using SSL. This simply does not work on ours even though we followed the config on their site exactly. Third they're very tempermental. We migr

What problems have you had with the Arrowpoint Sam? We do mainly Foundry for load balancing, and I have to say (as I'm not using my work e-mail address :-)) that they have been flaky as hell. We work fairly closely with Foundry (when we can get in touch), but every box seems to work differently w

Coyotepoint was the first server load balancing device I had ever heard of outside of your basic LSNAT configuration (I think Cisco calls it NAT load-sharing or something, but there is an RFC also). However, I've never actually seen one in production on any network. Around 1997-8 the Cisco Local
