摘要
A distributed load balancer in which a router receives packets from at least one client and routes packet flows to multiple load balancer nodes. The router exposes a public IP address and the load balancer nodes all advertise the same public IP address to the router. The router may implement a per-flow hashed multipath routing technique, for example an equal-cost multipath (ECMP) routing technique, to distribute the flows across the load balancer nodes. Thus, the multiple load balancer nodes may service a single public endpoint. The load balancer nodes may advertise to the router according to the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). Rather than advertising itself, however, a load balancer node may be advertised to the router by one or more neighbor load balancer nodes; the neighbor nodes may terminate the BGP sessions with the router in response to determining that the load balancer node has failed.
