- Cisco has got one called LocalDirector
- Foundry Networks has got one Called ServerIron (last time I looked,
this one seemed to have the most features)
- Lucent has one, don't remember it's name
- IIRC there was something on some IBM site

I think there are plenty out there by now. Personally, I would be
interested to hear some comments if anyone is using such a solution.



Best regards,
 Gabriel
