Hi
I have a customer whohas a Public facing Website that they would like to Load Balance using Windows Network Load Balancing. They intially tried using a Juniper Load Balancer, however -they're requirements were not met and reverted back to a Single Webserver.
The reason for opting out of WNLB was a requirement for Geo-Tracking and how load balancing failed to address this requirement - basically a Client would connect in from there own IP address (Public) - The Request would hit the Load Blancer and then the Load Balancer would create a Session with the Webserver - using the Load Baalncers IP address - so if you checked logs to see who was accesssing the site all you would see were the Load Balancers IP address and not the Clients IP address.
Does anybody know of a way with Windows 2003 or Windows 2008 Network Load Balancing - where the clients public IP Address is passed through to the website - so when the client checks to see where sessions are orginating from they will see Client IP addresses as oppossed to the Load Balancer IP address
Any assistence on this would be greatly appreciated
