Cisco bought Arrowpoint last year or so. I had the pleasure to play with
their CSS-11000 and it kicks ass!
The Local Director never was a good load balancer, it was more of a
intellingent routing switch doing load balancing. You can achieve the
same kind of thing with Foundry NetIrons and the like. The CSS-11000 on
the other hand is a real layer 4 switch. It can do all sorts of things
that makes it compete with big names like F-5 Big IP and the Web
Director. If you are considering getting a load balancer from Cisco, go
for the CSS family.
