Explanation

To ensure that the users of the website would be able to access the Web site if a single server fails. The website should be scalable to as many as seven Web servers and the web servers should be able to store session-state information for all users. It should also provide support for multiple dedicated IP addresses for each Web server. The Network Load Balancing (NLB) feature in Windows Server 2008 enhances the availability and scalability of Internet server applications such as those used on Web, FTP, firewall, proxy, virtual private network (VPN), and other mission-critical servers. NLB provides high availability of a website by detecting and recovering from a cluster host that fails or goes offline. You should not use failover clustering in this scenario because failover clustering does not provide scalability. 8b81f6fb8af31033.mspx?mfr=true
