Ok to use different WFEs to serve specific web applications?
Hi all,If we have a farm with several web front ends, is it a valid approach to use the DNS to route requests to a specfic web application to a specific server? Or is only load balancing on all web applications across all WFEs supported?Thanks,Christoffer

You could definitely do that and it would work just fine. However, I'd be interested to get more information about why you'd want to do this. Basically all of your WFEs will end up getting the same web applications anyway so if you route all the traffic to one (which will work) the others will just be sitting there not doing anything.John
