You may need another switch to tie the servers together to go out to the internet for management depending on how many ports your host gives you. The load balancer may also be able to do this depending on the number of ports
So you would end up with internet line coming in
switch
Load balancer
web boxes
Database 10/100 cards off that switch
Then in the back end all 4 boxes on 1 switch
I'm not an expert on load balancers but I have heard good things about the Coyote's you might want to have a look
