Bluecoat proxies with active-standby LTMs
Hi,
We have a couple of LTMs that will act in active-standby mode for our cache farm project where we will be implementing explicit proxy solution.
I would request your advice for connecting these Bluecoat proxies to the LTMs. I want these proxies (3-4 in in number) to be connected directly to both the LTMs. In case the primary LTM goes down, the user traffic should seamlessly shift to the secondary LTM.
I know that we can connect the proxies to a switch which will in turn connect to the LTMs but I do not want to have another device between LTMs and proxies. Which solution is better and what are our options here?
Your advice will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
