Hi Aleks,
I think it's not the one.
AFAIU the closest match for HAProxy "dst" is $server_addr, but it doesn't
work as good with DNAT, because it hides original destination IP used by a
client, even though there is a way to retrieve this information [1].
My usecase is following:
a) I create iptables rules on the host:
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -d 192.168.170.1 --dport 7654 -j
DNAT --to-destination 127.0.0.1:11123
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -d 192.168.170.2 --dport 7654 -j
DNAT --to-destination 127.0.0.1:11123
b) Run load balancer on localhost port 11123
c) Use telnet to hit 192.168.170.1:7654 and 192.168.170.2:7654
d) I need load balancer to choose different upstreams depending on the
address I specified on step (c)
It works with HAProxy, but unfortunately I can't find how to make it work
with NGINX :(
WBR,
Alexey.
