Load balance method and apparatus thereof

A load balance method, comprising:

• receiving, by a computing node, a second service request packet from a load balance node, wherein the second service request packet comprises address information of a service request end, address information of a to-be-processed load balance instance, and a MAC address of a to-be-processed service member, the to-be-processed load balance instance is a load balance instance configured on the load balance node, the second service request packet is obtained by the load balance node by modifying a MAC address of the load balance node in a first service request packet, and the first service request packet is a service request packet sent by the service request end to the load balance node;
• modifying, by the computing node based on configuration information, the address information of the to-be-processed load balance instance in the second service request packet to address information of the to-be-processed service member, to obtain a third service request packet;
• and
• sending, by the computing node, the third service request packet to the to-be-processed service member based on the MAC address of the to-be-processed service member.

A load balance node, wherein the load balance node comprises a processor, a transceiver, and a memory, the transceiver is configured to receive and send information, the memory stores a computer-executable instruction, the processor is connected to the memory and the transceiver by using a bus, and when the processor executes the computer-executable instruction stored in the memory, the load balance node is enabled to perform the following steps:

• controlling the transceiver to receive a first service request packet from a service request end, wherein the first service request packet comprises address information of the service request end, address information of a to-be-processed load balance instance, and a MAC address of the load balance node, and the to-be-processed load balance instance is a load balance instance configured on the load balance node;
• determining a to-be-processed service member based on the address information of the to-be-processed load balance instance, wherein the to-be-processed service member is configured to process the first service request packet;
• modifying the MAC address of the load balance node in the first service request packet to a MAC address of the to-be-processed service member, to obtain a second service request packet, wherein the second service request packet comprises the address information of the service request end, the address information of the to-be-processed load balance instance, and the MAC address of the to-be-processed service member;
• and
• controlling the transceiver to send the second service request packet to a computing node to which the to-be-processed service member belongs.
