-
Step1-2:DNS query
- request host name:demo.example.com
- get IP address 6.6.6.6(example)
-
Step3:IP diagram is routed to POP of IDC1,and processed by layer 4 load balancer L4LB.
-
Step4:L4LB forward diagram to BFE
-
Step5:BFE receive HTTP request, identify which product the request belongs to:
- BFE uses field "host" in HTTP header to decide product.
- In this scenario, assume demo.example.com belongs to product "demo".
-
Step6:Identify a cluster of product "demo", which would handle this message.
- Based on configured distribution rule of product "demo", identify cluster "demo-static" in this product to handle the message .
-
Step7:Identify a sub cluster within "demo-static"
- Based on routing rule in "demo-static", identify sub cluster "demo-static.idc1" to handle this message.
-
Step8:Identify instance
- based on configured load balancing policy, identify instance as "a-demo-static-1.idc1".
-
Step9:request is sent to instance "a-demo-static-1.idc1".
-
Step10:BFE receive response message from "a-demo-static-1.idc1".
-
Step11-12:BFE send back response to client, via L4LB.
