Hello Innes,

    The routing of the ldap client resquest is usually done by a proxy
    or something acting like a proxy.
    It is sometime preferable that after a failover to a backup server
    the ldap client stick to the backup server
    as we do not know exactly when the principal server will be able to
    handle the load.

    thanks
