Per Microsoft engineers:

The standard edition can be load balanced using NLB or other hardware,
load-balancers such as a Big IP F5.

Enterprise edition gets you a "centralized" control console and a few other
goodies.

But from a strict, load balancing perspective - stand alone version works
fine.

Your description below sounded like a "hot-failover" implementation. That I
am not sure how to do. Load balancing, however is fairly easy to implement
and will provide continuous service if one unit dies.

Thank you.

Hi All,
      Iam using ISA server as a standalone server(Standard Edition) and we
want to implement parallel ISA server as backup so that
if the original firewall is down for some reason the backup ISA server
should act immediately.For this to implement Do we need to buy the standard
Edition or Enterprise Edition of ISA server to implement this backup
scenario.

Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.

Vinay,
