[edit] token link
The token link at the bottom of this page links to a disambigulation page. It should probably link directly. I'm not sure which of the tokens on the page are reffered to by this page, but someone who does should change it.
[edit] Merging with Load balancer
Support - I was directed here by clicking the link on the Load Balancer page, to discuss merging these two pages. However I can't see any discussion! Here's my support for it anyway. Although it's clear that Load Balancing can be done in other ways apart from using a "load balancer" device, so I stand ready to be corrected. IanB 15:08, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Content Switches
I dont see any discussion about Content Switches. I'll add something if I get chance in the next month, unless anyone gets there first! I couldnt see thes under [Network Switch] either. IanB 15:08, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
OK - I found some brief discussion of Content switches under Multilayer switch which I've expanded slightly. IanB 12:14, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Not supported
Load-balancer can be viewed as a two different way: one which is used for software where it just shows how loadbalancer can help to provide better way to use Servers. But, actual Load-balancer is a totally different, in Hardware and Software. So, I think that, 2 topics should be created, 1 for software side which only deals with theories and 1 for practial one which is available on market.
[edit] "Networking and redundancy" section
This section's information sounds a bit like it was copied from a website selling something, especially with the bit about clients and competetors. Assuming that the info is valid, it needs rewriting. --Kennard2 16:04, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
This section reads like a guide or tutorial, not very encyclopedia-like. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.111.106.161 (talk) 14:39, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Need more info on Load Balancer.
I think we should provide more detail on Load Balancer and the methods. Give more detail on its functionality as well. People who use Wiki looking for fast and accurate information Most of us use this technology every day so why not share our knowledge. Some of the information on this article is not correct. Can any one tell me how many IDS do you use in a single Network Environment? Do you really Load Balance IDS. The new Load Balancers are built in IDS and IPS. If every one agrees with me I would like to add more detail information on the page.
[edit] Network Load Balancing is not the same as Server Load Balancing
i work for a business that offers two very different product types for both terms. i think that the content currently available is wholly based around SERVER load balancing and not bandwidth aggregation performed by Network load balancers (hardware) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.38.133.30 (talk) 18:53, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] SSL off loading
I have started to add some of the detail on SSL off loading. Not too Tech but overview. and i have try to explain why this needed in my words. please let me know if this is ok with all of you. if not i will provid more info or i will remove the contents. thanks
[edit] Features list
The features list is a mess, only those deep in the profession would know all those terms. At least make them links so it looks like we're trying. ----RProgrammer 18:24, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Market Leaders
What exactly is the criteria for being a market leader? The list seems a bit long. It seems like some of the companies, in an act of shameless self promotion, have been putting their own name on the list and linking directly to their own websites. I am considering trimming the list down to maybe the top 10 companies based on market share. --Pchov 19:19, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Why does my addition of Xrio (xrio.com) a Loadbalancing Hardware Supplied keep being removed from the Vendor Section? markrush@gmail.com 16 Oct 07 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.163.53.115 (talk) 14:56, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Difference between Mirroring, Failover, Clustering and Load balancing?......
What is the difference between Disk mirroring, Failover, High-availability clusters (a.k.a. Clustering?) and Load balancing?
I would like to see a concise comparison of concepts across all of these pages, as all of these concepts seems tightly bound, and perhaps some of them are identical.
