CAS&HUB Deployment options to 2 locations

Hi and Thanks for the feedback in advance

Environment: Exchange 2013 SP1, Windows 2012 R2

I have two geographical locations, but a single AD Domain, e.g. mydomain.local.

I want to deploy 2 CAS/HUB server 1 on each geographical location.

On each site, I'll have dedicate Mailbox server with DAG(s)

My objective is to minimize WAN utilization except in certain scenarios and to use a single name space, e.g. outlook.mydomain.local

What is your recommendation? The only options I have found so far are either NLB in my case Windows NLB, which is based on round-robin or to use 2 name spaces outlook1.my.... and outlook2.my.....

Round-Robin isn't my solution I have 200 users at 1 location and 50 at the 2 location. I want to streamline the environment for the users, thereby making this easier to me (the ultimate goal) :)

Looks like due to tech issue Windows NLB cannot be implemented, both CAS need to be on the same IP Subnet
