Abstract	We proposed a new load balancing mechanism, called LBAM (load balancing based on pseudo-anycast and pseudo-mobility in IPv6), by which sessions can be distributed across a pool of servers for maximum performance. Load balancing is needed in many fields, such as Web servers, FTP server and NAT gateway, and there exist several approaches for load balancing. However, current approaches have problems such as poor scalability, inability to balance session flow, long latency time, and topological constraint on server pools. In this paper, we describe how LBAM works in principle without the above problems. We also present our simulation work using NS-2 and discuss performance comparison between LBAM and other load balancing mechanisms. The results show that LBAM has a very advanced performance and scalability. Finally, the ubiquitous applications of LBAM in NGI (next generation Internet) are presented.
