I think a distributed-director type setup would work much better. Having L4 switches implies that all your servers are in one facility. That implies the network problems such as wcarchive experiences with lack of peering (or simply the peering pipes are too small). Having distributed servers is *much* preferable, even from a redundancy standpoint if nothing else. Gary -- Gary Palmer FreeBSD Core Team Member FreeBSD: Turning PC's into workstations.
