Hi,

Is there any advantage to setup up Universal Forwarder to communicate different ports with index servers with load balancing instead all go to port 9997?

[tcpout]

autoLB = true

autoLBFrequency = 10

compressed = false

defaultGroup = AA

[tcpout:AA]

server = a1-abc.com:9995,b1.abc.com:9996,c1.abc.com:9997

I'm think that each TCP session will have its own send/receive buffers. My real question is will they communicate concurrently in the load balancing mode?

None at all that I can think of. Did you have an idea yourself, since you asked?
