Internet Load Balancing with ACE

[omar.elmohri]

Hello,

Is it possible to load balance traffic in two or more Internet connections with ACE? I'll need the ACE to verify the route health as I have no routing with ISPs.

Please, any suggestion?

Regards,

Omar

SLB features should help for load balanicng the network traffic from ISP.

Server load balancing (SLB) on the ACE provides the following features:

• Network traffic policies for SLB

• Real servers and server farms

• Health monitoring through probes, as well as TCL scripts

• Stickiness (connection persistence)

• Firewall load balancing (FWLB) to load-balance traffic from the Internet through a firewall to a data center or intranet

For more information, see the Cisco Application Control Engine Module Server Load-Balancing Configuration Guide.
