system manager applies the network connection from ISP. Generally speaking, in order to
allocate enough IP addresses for all computers, an enterprise assigns each computer a
private IP address, and converts it into a real IP address through RS-2500’s NAT (Network
Address Translation) function. If a server that provides service to WAN network is located
in LAN networks, external users cannot directly connect to the server by using the server’s
private IP address.

Through the Virtual Server function, the RS-2500 translates the Virtual Server’s IP address
into the private IP address in the LAN network.

which causes the Virtual Server to distribute data packets to each private IP addresses
(which are the real servers) by session. Therefore, it can reduce the loading of a single
server and lower the crash risk. And can improve the work efficiency.
