BalanceNG is a modern software IP load balancing
solution. It is small, fast, and easy to use and
setup. It offers session persistence, different
distribution methods (Round Robin, Random,
Weighted Random, Least Session, Least Bandwidth,
Hash, Agent, and Randomized Agent) and a
customizable UDP health check agent in source
code. It supports VRRP to set up high availability
configurations on multiple nodes. It supports
SNMP, integrating the BALANCENG-MIB with
Net-SNMPD. It implements a very fast in-memory
IP-to-location database, allowing powerful
location-based server load-balancing.
Changes: A new parameter "psvrelearn" allows you to disable passive updates to the ARP table. The Ubuntu JeOS VMware virtual appliance has been updated accordingly. The manual has been updated accordingly.
