Abstract:
The present invention concerns a method of network layer load balancing for a server farm (group of servers located on the same link) that provide identical, transaction and UDP based services, e.g. DNS service. Load balancing functionality is based on the use of the IPv6 anycast addressing for the service queries and specific Neighbour Advertisement messaging.
