This document provides prescriptive guidance about how Application Request Routing (ARR) can be used with a hardware load balancer to achieve high availability and scalability. F5 BIG-IP load balancer is used in this document to illustrate the worki...
This test scenario employed the use of both global server (the F5 BIG-IP GTM) and local server (the F5 BIG-IP LTM) HLBs. The global server load balancers were implemented to manage traffic to each site based upon central site availability and health, while the local server load balancers...
If you are deploying mobile devices, your hardware load balancer must be able to load balance individual request within a TCP session (in effect, you must be able to load balance an individual request based on the target IP address). Warning F5 hardware load balancers have a feature called ...
I came across an interesting scenario relating to the use of a Hardware Load Balancer publishing Exchange Client Access Servers. This relates specifically to how CAS distributes OAB and how Outlook decides which files it needs to perform an OAB update....
The default configuration on many hardware load balancers is to cache some http content. We were looking at a cached copy of the oab.xml! Thanks for the help, Mr. Load Balancer! The Solution: Turn off http caching on the load balancer. You can either disable it ...

When IP addresses and DNS names are registered, the team keeps Bob in the loop so he can update the documentation with the information for the new hosts and so firewall and load balancer configuration can be updated according to the documentation later when the servers have arrived. ...
Hello, We are implementing a livelink system that calls for a F5 load balancer for the two App servers. Admin and DB servers are not load balanced. We've...
Load balancers, once almost exclusive to the realm of hardware devices, can now be implemented effectively in software on another server. The line between hardware and software load balancers is fading fast. The principle difference between a hardware versus software load balancer l...
