NX Server is split in two parts:

Server and node

The server is for authentication, session storage and choosing the right node.

The node is for nxagent and applications.

As all clients connect to the frontier and all other hosts redirect to the frontier also. All connections ultimately go through the frontier machine so it knows where to load balance the session to.

A host is chosen by algorithm or if a sessio nis resumed by node the session was started on.
