Greeting,

Could anyone advice me if GSS4492R can be used to email server infrastructure?

If so, how to do it? how to setup MX record?

Any comments will be appreciated

thanks in advance

GSS2.0 with CNR supports GSLB (Global server load balancing) of MX

records.

Here are the details

Each query is processed as follows, depending upon its type:

*A Queries- The GSS processes these queries and responds if it finds a

reply for the query. If it fails to find a reply, it queries the CNR

subsystem for a reply. The CNR reply is then forwarded to the D-Proxy.

*All other Queries- These queries are forwarded to the CNR subsystem.

The response from the CNR subsystem is forwarded back to the D-Proxy. If

the response contains A records in the Additional Section, the GSS may

perform its own query processing and modify the Additional Section of

the Response to provide a load-balanced A records in the Additional

Section.
