Round robin DNS
Friday, September 29th, 2006Both Firefox and IE correctly handle round-robin DNS apparently. This means if you list multiple A records and one of the machines says “Connection refused”, both will retry.
Source for Firefox. Actually, I can’t find a source that confirms this solidly for Internet Explorer. Dear Lazyweb…?
Anywya, Venkatesh, thanks for correcting me on this important web tech issue.
