When multiple servers are joined to create a [[Cluster (computing)|cluster]]. Clusters can use network load balancing whereby simultaneous cluster request are distributed between cluster servers.
 
[[Round -robin DNS]] records is one form of cluster load balancing. It works by creating multiple host records (usually A and/or AAAA) for one machine. As clients make requests, DNS rotates through its list of records.
 
In addition to the before mentioned, to configure a terminal server cluster, one needs a load-balancing technology such as Network Load Balancing (NLB) or DNS round robin. A load balancing solution will distribute client connections to each of the terminal servers.
