Hi Rohit,
I lead the Aster*x project at Stanford. What you want to do sounds very
similar to Aster*x.
Aster*x, formerly known as Plug-n-Serve, was demonstrated at Sigcomm 2009.
You can find the abstract and video at:
http://www.openflowswitch.org/wk/index.php/Videos#SIGCOMM_demos
A couple of weeks ago, we had a major demo at GEC9, where we demonstrated
Aster*x working across 9 US campuses. The abstract is up at:
http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/Gec9PlenaryDemoAbstracts
The video will be up online soon.
I hope you find this useful for your project.
Cheers,
Nikhil

HI Rohit
I'm not sure if this is a question appropriate to the nox-dev list. I
believe the list is intended for questions regarding developing over
NOX.
You may want to lookup a previous work called Plug-n-serve, followed
by an improved system called Aster*x, that builds a server farm with
all hosts having same alias IP address, while having different MAC
address. To achieve what you are suggesting, you might have to rewrite
MAC addresses at the gateway point instead of trying to use ARP
revocation to change the MAC address for each request.

I am trying to simulate Server-Load Distribution. I have a farm of
host behind a switch who should be addressable by a single IP because
they are part of the same server service advertised to the outside
world. The switch will decide which flow to assign to which host
depending upon the link utilization of the hosts. So, during the
topology setup, can I assign the same IP address to the farm of hosts?
