Farm design questions
1 windows 2008 x64 standard server (ts01) with:
ts licensing role
ts session broker role
ts web access role
ts gateway role
2 windows 2008 x64 standard server (ts02, ts03) with:
ts terminal server role
dns: record of ts.domain.com assigned ts01.
users both internally , externally accessing ts.
the ts session broker / nlb documentation doesn't seem go enough detail understand requirements. resource kit glosses on topic. link better step-by-step similar design helpful.
question 1: read either dns or nlb can used load balancing. since using session broker requirement use dns rr and/or nlb?
question 2: if 1 of options required prefer nlb. nlb installed?
question 3: can gateway run without certificate while test? know can issue self-signed cert can done without cert during initial testing?
question 4: issues way roles distributed?
question 5: have cert named ts.domain.com, should farm name same of different?
thanks
question 1 : read either dns or nlb can used load balancing. since using session broker requirement use dns rr and/or nlb?
no, windows 2008 session broker smarted either of them. dns rr not load balancer. can stick session broker - he
does job well.
question 2 : if 1 of options required prefer nlb. nlb installed?

question 3 : can gateway run without certificate while test? know can issue self-signed cert can done without cert during initial testing?
no cant. have have cert - self-signed while. needs save secure connection - doesnt work without cert.
question 4 : issues way roles distributed?
with amount of servers given - no.
question 5 : have cert named ts.domain.com, should farm name same of different?
not matter. main thing dns identify servers in domain (see other post) wildcard cert. domain.com
