Configuring the WSM using Device Manager

About load balancing metrics

You can configure how traffic is distributed across multiple real servers by choosing a load-balancing metric for the server group. The metric tells the real server group how to select which of its real servers will receive the next client connection. The available metrics are:

• Minimum Misses
• Hash
• Least connections
• Round robin
• Response time
• Bandwidth
