Re: Traffic Engineering (fwd)

[Avi Freedman <freedman () netaxs com>]

The cyclic stuff in News recently has hammered home that the search
for elegance pays off.  I "initially" solved the problem of having
multiple machines with the same IP by postulating IP-stack hackery
involving forwarding any packets that come in for sockets that
don't exist to a central database-forwarder machine that keeps track
of all open tcp sessions on all replicated machines, but it turns
out that there are some much easier non-stack-hackery-mandatory
solutions.
