Hello all hope this doesn't come to everyone thrice, apparently lvs
mailing list doesn't like pgp signatures...
I have only recently found out about all of your great
work,
thanks to
any and all who have worked on the project thus far. My
questions
revolve around an application I am building. It is a chat
server that
talks over udp. It is not a one packet per session protocol
unfortunately. So the current lvs way of routing for 300
seconds or so
doesn't really work for me I am hoping there is a solution i am
missing.
Here are the two solutions I see.
So I am able to maintain state across my real servers so
I could
have
the director send all packets to all real servers, and then the
servers
would decide how to properly respond. Is there a method for
this?
My second solution would be require work for sure, have
the
director
look at the first 4 bytes of the udp packet, as that contains
all the
session information i would need, and could route to the correct
real
server or another real server if the correct real server died.
I
realize this would require work but would be beneficial to
people
needing to do things like sip or h.323 and other session based
udp
connections.
