TFTP load balancing

I am interested finding a load balancing solution for TFTP servers so that we can load balance the TFTP servers (and thus the TFTP IP protocol). Has anyone done this before, had experience with this, know of any products/solutions to help me. Please? :)..

please forward any links ..!!!

Shalom,

Use DNS round robin load balancing to do the job. Make sure the content of the two servers is identical

The best thing to do is to set it up with a monitor script so that if one of the two or more round robin hosts is missing, the dns table is reloaded and users are not sent to the dead system.
