Supported Algorithms | Description |
|
|
Destination | The Destination IP address of the client's packets is |
| hashed and used as an index to an array of active |
| servers bound to the service. This is appropriate for |
| redirection of sessions between a smaller set of clients |
| and a larger set of servers, for example, local users of |
| the extraNet, or the |
Round Robin | Each new connection is assigned to the next server in |
| the list. This distributes connections evenly between |
| the servers. |
Weighted Round Robin | Similar to Round Robin, except that N consecutive new |
| connections are assigned to a server before selecting |
| the next server in the list, where N is the weight |
| assigned to the server. Servers with higher |
| performance or capacity should be assigned higher |
| weight. |
| The weight assigned to the server is assigned using the |
| Assign caches to services (Advanced)... window. A |
| weight field is provided. |
Least Connections | Each new connection is assigned to the server having |
| the fewest number of open connections. If several |
| servers have the same low number of open |
| connections, then the new connection is sent to the |
| server that was least recently sent a new connection |
Weighted Least | Similar to Least Connections, except that N consecutive |
Connections | new connections are assigned to a server before next |
| selecting the server with the least number of open |
| connections, where N is the weight assigned to the |
| server |

8The default health check is Ping, click Next. Other available health checks are:
■Ping — Server Load Balancer periodically pings each server using ICMP Echo. The number of retries are configurable. If successive ping attempts fail, the server is marked as down and is removed from the pool of available servers.
