Planning your deployment
Deployment models
Compared with basic gateway deployment, this configuration eliminates a
single point of failure for message scanning.
This model allows administrators to take individual Scanners offline for
maintenance without incurring downtime.
This scenario enables load balancing of filtered mail across multiple
downstream MTAs.
Considerations
This approach requires more administrative overhead and complex
networking than a basic gateway deployment.
With increased hardware and maintenance costs, this model could require a
higher total cost of operation.
