摘要：A load balancer system is described herein which uses one or more switch-based hardware multiplexers, each of which performs a multiplexing function. Each suchhardware multiplexer operates based on an instance of mapping information associatedwith a set of virtual IP (VIP) addresses, corresponding to a complete set of VIP addressesor a portion of the complete set. That is, each hardware multiplexer operates by

mapping VIP addresses that correspond to its set of VIP addresses to appropriate directIP (DIP) addresses. In another implementation, the load balancer system may also useone or more software multiplexers that perform a multiplexing function with respect tothe complete set of VIP addresses. A main controller can generate one or more instancesof mapping information, and then load the instance(s) of mapping information on thehardware multiplexer(s), and the software multiplexer(s) (if used).
