Abstract
A method and system that enables a network and components of the network to be aware of the services existing at the edges of the network and to route connection requests for these services to appropriate servers within the network based on a variety of criteria. By making the network and network components service-aware, routing functions can be implemented in a more scalable and efficient way.
