- adra 4y agoAs such, the load balancer itself can probably hold a group of source IPs to use as second-hop solution to this problem as well if we're sincerely talking about load balancers holding a ton of largely idle connections simultaneously. The more likely load balancer outcome would be DNS split on inbound client IPs, and scaling out until each load balancer handles the appropriate amount of traffic (by some measure and scale out if exceeded).
- NavinF 4y agoOnly for L4 load balancers. L3 (switches doing ECMP) won’t modify source IP and L7 (e.g. nginx) will reuse TCP connections to the backend servers.
