For performing load balancing on incoming connection you will need an external box. IBM has a product called Director. For outbound load balancing you setup a Virtual IP. This enables the AS400 to choose the best path to send out the response. There is also something can a Schowler Route which does outbound load balancing. Christopher K.

My question is this: We have 2 GigE connections from our iSeries to our internal network. Would we get better performance running the same web server configuration on both GigE cards and split the load between the 2 cards, or would we be better to only run the web server on 1 of the GigE cards and have everyone use the same server? I'm also looking for recommendations for some sort of box to do load balancing.
