+ HAProxy (version 1.3.22) has been successfully used with HIPL for
web-based
+ load balancing in in a cloud-based deployment. In the experimentation,
the
+ HAProxy translated non-HIP communications originating from clients
+ into HIP-based connections to the servers. The HAProxy did not require
+ any changes, and it was merely configured to use LSIs or HITs instead
of
+ IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. In the experiment, the hosts files were
modified to
+ contain both the identifiers and locators as described by method 3a in
+ <xref linkend="sec_easy_methods" />. In addition, HIP daemon and
firewall
+ were installed at the host that was running HAProxy.
