hi guys, <br />
<br />
I've attached a basic PDF document that explains the environment our web hosting company has set up for us. <br />
<br />
Basically, from a windows client you open the RD tool and you enter the IP address 10.35.160.10 (please note: 10.35.160.10 is a virtual IP which terminates on the Content Switch for load balancing )<br />
<br />
Enter your credentials and you're logged on to a terminal services session. <br />
Now, what's happening is that we are ALWAYS being directed to the same TS server 1 and not Terminal Server 2. <br />
<br />
I believe that this content switch is a Linux box or maybe I'm wrong. My question is, can I still go ahead and create a Terminal Services session broker on a Windows 2008 box in order for these TS sessions to become load balanced and for our users to get directed equally between TS1 and TS2? <br />
<br />
If I did so, would that not create two load balancers? (i.e. one linux box load balancer and one windows 2008 one?).<br />
Thanks again for all of your help,<br />
<br />

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.

Linux Networking

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.
