Yes. (Note though, that this may not be true on all OSes. And this also won't be true when using proxy_bind, as OS will have to choose a local port before the destination address is known.) > > - add more local addresses on nginx side and use proxy_bind to > > balance users between these addresses. > Yes, I've seen this, however I didn't catch how to dynamically assign a > value to proxy_bind from a pool of IP addresses in nginx (not Nginx Plus). The blog post as linked by Maxim Konovalov uses the split_clients module, it's not nginx-plus specific. See here for details: http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_split_clients_module.html Depending on your particular case, there may be even easier solutions. E.g., if you have two URIs in your application with more or less equal load, you can use two locations with distinct addresses configured statically: location /one { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080; proxy_bind 127.0.0.2; } location /two { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080; proxy_bind 127.0.0.3; } -- Maxim Dounin http://nginx.org/ _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
