Re: L3 DSR

Maybe I'm forgetting something, but I believe *all* DSR (direct server
return) is L3.  L2 DSR wouldn't be too useful unless you had one really,
really big, flat, private network, would it?

 

Most vendors support this type of configuration in one way or the other-but
I also don't know of any that recommend the configuration, except for very
specific circumstances.  But-even in video streaming these days, there are
benefits to running the traffic back through the ADC in order to manage
out-bound traffic flow-and there are plenty of boxes that can handle the
throughput.

 

So-when you talk about "protecting L2 Broadcast"-what exactly are you trying
to do and why?

 

--and, if I'm being complete silly, please forgive me-it is Monday morning.

Hi guys.

 

Have you heard about L3 DSR?

which vendors support this?

I heard L3 DSR could protect L2 broadcast. but I think LB should consider a
lot of things to support that.

 

Thanks.
