Load balance 10 TS servers

Hello-

Cleint putting 10 terminal servers in the colo.  300 users will be connecting remotely.  What would be the best way to load balance them?  Is there a way to max the number of connections per each TS server?

Would I need a hardware based load balancer or a software one?

Please advice.  Thanks.

here is another link to configure:
http://aaronwalrath.wordpress.com/2010/05/28/configuring-windows-2008-r2-remote-desktop-farm-with-connection-broker/

you have to create A records in DNS for each TS in the session broker farm with the farm name

like

tsfarm 192.168.1.10 (server1)
tsfarm 192.168.1.11 (server2)

it will use round robin

but be aware to function correct you need a PKI with valid certificates
