Configuring the WSM using Device Manager

Global server load balancing

Global server load balancing (GSLB) lets you balance server traffic across multiple physical sites. Remote sites exchange state information using the Distributed Site State Protocol (DSSP). Load balancing decisions are then based on the health, response time, and geographic location of each site at a given point in time. GSLB supports all IP protocols.
