Help with Replacement of Localdirector

[david.morrow]

Hi all. I am hoping to draw on the wealth of Cisco product knowledge in this forum to help me actually chose a product.

I currently have several Cisco Localdirectors deployed. Cisco has discontinued the product. I am currently preparing to implement a new application which will require load balancing. I require no more features than what Localdirector provided. Can anyone recommend a Cisco product which provides basic server load balancing similar to that which LD provided?

I would go for CSS11501.

If you need SSL or more performance, the 11503 or 11506.

If you have Cat6k already in your network, you can have a look at the CSM or CSM-S

Regards,

Gilles.

Thanks for the response. I guess I will need to look into the CSS11500 product.

If you don't need anything advanced there are server laod balancing features built into IOS. All you need is an existing router.
