SignalR Silverlight and LoadBalancer

We have an application with Silverlight 5 and WCF RIA backend. Our Client's environment has load balancing but has only 30 - 40 users.

We wanted to use SignalR for messaging, but instead of using a backplane, i am planning to install a seperate MVC service as Hub which will sit outside the Loadbalancer, where all clients can connect to.

Is this approach okay for a small user base (30 - 40 users)? And since its going to be cross domain, do i need to copy clientaccesspolicy.xml to the root folders for silverlight to work ? Or do i need to configure SignalR to allow cross domain?

Thanks !

You need both. Enabling cross domain on SignalR server allows requests to be processed on server side. Adding clientaccesspolicy.xml allows Silverlight to establish the connection.
