But the weight on MX records is not really based on server load. Mail will go to the next server if the first is not available. Alex On Fri, May 9, 2014 at 2:21 PM, Alex Nyalita <nyalita@gmail.com> wrote:
I said *weighted load balancing*. This is meant load balance different kind of traffic and not web applications.

Load balancing - aha - this is very well done on the webserver you are using - thats why you need not trouble the good old DNS protocol

Alex,
Whether Bind or Unbound, PDNS or djbdns, I believe the RFCs apply equally. So go right ahead and write a new RFC and submit it to the IETF Working Group dealing with DNS :) You can do patches to any of them, and submit for approval, thereby doing what Adam mentioned - "convincing the rest of the world to respect your rewrite :-P"

He he he, interesting comments.
My mail is very clear, I want to achieve a similar weighting as MX but on A records on DNS (Weighted Load balancing on DNS) . I did not specify Bind as the server to use. So my options are open.
