Server Load Balancing Example
In the figure on the following page, an SLB cluster consisting of four (4) physical servers has been config-
ured with a VIP of 128.241.130.204 and an SLB cluster name of “WorldWideWeb.” The switch processes
requests sent by clients to the VIP of 128.241.130.204 and sends to the appropriate physical server,
depending on configuration and the operational states of the physical servers. The switch then transmits
the requested data from the physical server back to the client.
