[mailto:Adam.Martin@xxxxxxxxx] If I load balance between two 2.2 Apache HTTP Servers on two
separate physical servers, what type of device or software can I place in front
of the web servers to allow users to access either web server via one IP
Address? I did a quick search in the documentation but wasn’t sure
what to look for. Would it be as simple as pointing the users to a router
configured with some type of forwarding? How do I prevent this device
from becoming a single point of failure? I know these questions are not
Apache specific, at least I don’t think they, but after being a member of
this list for a couple of months and seeing the level of expertise on this
board I figured someone could point me in the right direction. I am not asking
for a how-to response, just concepts on where to start to start looking or
which documentation I should look at. Thanks. ---------- Learn more about Chase Paymentech Solutions,LLC payment processing services at www.chasepaymentech.com. THIS MESSAGE IS CONFIDENTIAL.
