OpenSolaris ILB is open solution ;)
but yea, that's what we've started looking at -- hence LVM / HAProxy as =
well.. (though LVM is IPv4 only, and HAProxy is NAT only for IPv6)
does relayd support UDP as well as TCP or is it layer7 only like HAProxy =
?
In the case of ILB, I'm not convinced that it's a problem with the LB =
itself, but rather the idiosyncrasies of ND in IPv6 that is causing the =
problem.. but I may be wrong... at any rate, something's amiss ...=20
