Abstract

Techniques may include mapping, by a service node, a first virtual address for a particular service to private addresses that identify servers, wherein each server provides the particular service, and wherein a URL for the service resolves to the first virtual address. The techniques may include configuring a service load balancer of the service node to load balance network traffic for the first virtual address across the servers and forwarding network traffic for the first virtual address between the servers and subscriber devices. The techniques may include, associating a second virtual address with a subset of the private addresses that excludes the private address for the at least one server, and causing the URL to resolve to the second virtual address. The techniques may include forwarding network traffic for the first virtual address between the servers and the subset of the subscriber devices.
