About Installing Web Conferencing in a Load Balancing
Configuration
Load balancing in Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing makes use of a cluster of Web
Conferencing servers to spread the active meeting load, allowing you to scale the number and size of
meetings that your deployment can support. It also provides failover capabilities for meetings–if one
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing server is unavailable or unreachable, meeting clients
will reconnect to another server, even if they are currently connected to a meeting that is in progress
when the connection is interrupted.
You can view the amount of web-conferencing load per server from the Web Server administrative page.
This information is displayed only on internal web servers.
