1. We use cookie based load-balancing, and find it far more useful than the LB algorithms mentioned. Any chance of adding it? 4. You say regular users can view configuration and statistics. I would expect to be able to restrict that, as I wouldn't always want all users to be able to view everything. 5. Can you expand the rules a little. I assume that ping just verifies that the address is reachable; tcp checks that the port will accept a connection? Given that a primary use case is for web servers, why not have HTTP as a builtin health check? I wouldn't expect evry user to have to write their own health checks. 7. I would like to see smarter draining - normally in conjunction with cookie-based load balancing (see my comment on section 1). Basically we have lots of different sessions coming in from the same IP address (because lots of users sit behind the same proxy server). -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
