Explanation
A load balancer sits between the external network (Internet/clients) and a pool of application servers. Its primary function is to receive incoming external requests and distribute (route) them across multiple backend application servers to balance the workload and provide high availability. It does not provide Internet access for workstations or allow the application to reach a database - those are handled by routing/switching and backend connectivity, respectively.
