Has foundry figured out how to introduce persistence in their LB's yet? I
like their switches and have been waiting for them to get persistence going

one was around now. Great idea! Thanx! -Karyn

actually, Foundry has a global solution based on BGP, check them out.
There is a load-balancing mailing list, which addresses such issues.
http://vegan.net/lb is the info to sign up.
