The load balancing method that determines which server is used “next” by the load balancer. The method is stored in an abbreviated form, represented in parentheses after the full name. Methods include: Round Robin (Value “rr”): Each server is used sequentially in a circular queue Shortest Response (Value “sr”): The server with the lowest ping at the last health check gets the next request Least Connections (Value “lc”): The server with the least current connections is given the next request Persistent IP - Round Robin (Value “pi”): The same server will be returned to a request during a users session. Servers are chosen through round robin. Persistent IP - Shortest Response (Value “pi-sr”): The same server will be returned to a request during a users session. Servers are chosen through shortest response. Persistent IP - Least Connections (Value “pi-lc”): The same server will be returned to a request during a users session. Servers are chosen through least connections. Insert Cookie - Round Robin (Value “ic”): Inserts a cookie into the HTTP stream that will tie that client to a particular balanced server. Servers are chosen through round robin. Insert Cookie - Shortest Response (Value “ic-sr”): Inserts a cookie into the HTTP stream that will tie that client to a particular balanced server. Servers are chosen through shortest response. Insert Cookie - Least Connections (Value “ic-lc”): Inserts a cookie into the HTTP stream that will tie that client to a particular balanced server. Servers are chosen through least connections.
