Network Load Balancing

[biz]

I noticed during an install of Windows 2003 server
the "Network Load Balance Service"... does anyone have a
link to info on configuring this? Is this for using
multiple NIC's?

thanks,
biz

Hi biz. Thank-you for your post.

Typically NLB is used to load balance or load share TCP/IP traffic among
multiple systems (2 - 32).

These articles will help you configure NLB:
