Now, how does incoming traffic get balanced? In my setup, with round-robin DNS.
How does DNS have anything to do with it? DNS is used to look up IP addresses. Are you saying that you have a DNS server configured to hand out different IP addresses for each access to your site? While that sort of thing is used by large servers, such as Google (anycast), I really don't see much need for small users. Also, with large servers, such as Google, it's used to balance geographically, not just what link is used to a single site. There are also load balancers that distribute incoming traffic, but again that has to be done at some other point, if you want multiple routes. For example, you might use a routing protocol, such as OSPF or EIGRP to load balance incoming traffic and a first hop redundancy protocol, such as GLBP, to balance over mulitple routers for outgoing. Etherway, you need something to load balance incoming and outgoing traffic. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
