[f-nsp] Serveriron XL vs ADX

[Eldon Koyle]

If you are only wanting to play with basic load-balancing, they are
relatively similar IIRC (it's been about 4 years since we upgraded from
the XLs to the ADXes).  The old XLs don't support the new content-based
load balancing (ie. using an HTTP header to set affinity or using the
URL to decide which server to send traffic to, I think brocade calls it
'content switching').

HTH,
