It looks really nice,
but the caveat for us would be that a change in the number of hosts
would require a firewall change on all hosts.
with regularity that we have down time for hosts.
It would be a hassle to update 30 hosts with new firewalls.
also if 1 of them is down it will have an old firewall.
so I would rather have a loadbalancer which centralizes that kinda
management.
Is it more effective i wouldn't know,
i think that a lvs loadbalancer can handle many Mb's of traffic. if it
exceeds 1Gb you can allways trunk 2 or more connections.
You could also split the traffic over multiple ip's with round robin dns.

Dear list,
I have just read:

What is the lists view on it?
Can it really be compared to LVS?
Thanks.
