LoadMaster LM-3600 - L4/L7, 3.4Gbps, 4 X GbE, 4 GB RAM, 200W ATX
LM-3600 Server Load Balancer - The LoadMaster 3600 provides a combination of high availability and high performance for mission-critical servers and applications featuring:
- 8x GbE ports
- 3.4 Gbps L4 balancer throughput
- SSL Transactions Per/Second (TPS): 5,000
- Servers Supported: 1,000 Physical /1,000 Virtual
- Requests per second (HTTP): 77,000
The LoadMaster 3600 Load Balancer is an advanced application delivery controller with Layer 7 content switching and integrated ASIC-based SSL acceleration. The LoadMaster intelligently and efficiently distributes user traffic, and offloads and accelerates Layer 7 applications such as SSL security and content, to optimize web and application servers, ensuring users get the best experience possible.
The LoadMaster 3600 gives IT administrator’s greater control, and enables them to easily adapt to network changes by providing a resource optimization layer in front of applications and servers.
The LoadMaster 3600 ensures each user gets the best application experience possible by providing 99.999% high-availability of application servers and removes the Server Load Balancer as single point of failure.
The LoadMaster simplifies the management of networked resources, and optimizes and accelerates user access to diverse servers, content and transaction-based systems. The LoadMaster 3600 provides an unmatched combination of availability and performance for mission-critical servers and applications.
