The above doc explains exactly what I want to do. I have another
question though:

- Can a Linux Director deal with multiple IP addresses? For example,
suppose that I want to run many instances of our app on the realservers,
for different customers. Basically I want the Director to answer to:

192.168.200.001:8001
192.168.200.002:8001
192.168.200.003:8001
...
192.168.200.00n:8001

and for each of these addresses forward the requests to the same 2
realservers that each will have n instances of the app server bound to a
specific IP address:

realserver1:
Instance 1 listens only on: 192.168.100.101:8001
Instance 2 listens only on: 192.168.100.102:8001
Instance 3 listens only on: 192.168.100.103:8001
...
Instance n listens only on: 192.168.100.10n:8001

realserver2:
Instance 1 listens only on: 192.168.100.201:8001
Instance 2 listens only on: 192.168.100.202:8001
Instance 3 listens only on: 192.168.100.203:8001
...
Instance n listens only on: 192.168.100.20n:8001

Is this feasible?

Thanks,

Patrick
