Sorry for throwing my 2 cents out, but I think LVS box could never
be the bottle neck for 99.999% situations. If we are thinking balancing
on the wide area networks, that would be totally different. Another
thought, if the concern was the LVS being the bottle neck, what
about implement something similar to Radware that has both
primary and 2ndary taking traffic at the same time?
