It may have a completely different network on the other side for the resources for which it load balances. As far as the world knows, it is the single device to which hosts connect. It merely spreads the load around to the resources for which it fronts. | |

| Aug 8, 2016 at 4:18 | comment | added | Cin Sb Sangpi | So does it mean the main load balancer name is A and anyone who requests will only know A. Inside the load balancer A-A1-A2-A3-A4, other A's never appear to request? (A's=IP) thx | |
