I've got a Netgear N600 WNDR3400 Router at home. Is it possible to create a virtual hostname on my home network and have it forward to specific IP addresses of my choosing?
For instance, I'd like to create a virtual host name like http://router1
, and round-robin any connection to that name to a list of designated IPs.
I'm not sure if my router even supports it, my cable company gave it to me for free.

, probablyWNDR3400
orWNDR3700
. That said, I don't believe Netgear's default firmware will support round-robin load balancing.nginx
to distribute HTTP requests evenly. DNS Round-robin does not distribute requests evenly, it only distributes computers evenly. You need a large volume of client computers for it to actually "balance".
