Hi All,

As in previous posts i mention how to configure Network Load Balancing. Now i am going to mention how to configure Alternate access mapping to use this load balancing in sharePoint.

1. Open the Central Administration.
2. Open Application Management.
3. Select "Configure Alternate Access Mapping" Under Web Applications.
4. Select your web application that you want to use with load balancing.
5. Under "URL Protocol, host & port", enter the URL that we provided while configuring Network Load Balancing on First Web Front End server.
6. Click on OK.
7. Now you will see the new URL in the Alternate Access Mapping list of the web application.

Congratulations, Now your web application is using the load balancing service.
