Distributing Frequently-Accessed Sites Across Cache Servers; Monitoring Web Caching - Cabletron Systems IA1100 User's Reference Manual

Distributing Frequently-Accessed Sites Across Cache Servers

The IA uses the destination IP address of the HTTP request to determine which cache
server to send the request. However, if there is a Web site that is being accessed very
frequently, the cache server serving requests for this destination address may become
overloaded with user requests. You can specify that certain destination addresses be
distributed across the cache servers in a round-robin manner.
To distribute a specified destination address across cache servers, enter the following
command in Configure mode:
Distribute destination address
across cache servers.
