5.3.7. Class MultiTargetChainer

This class encapsulates a real TCP/IP connection establishment, and is used when a top-level proxy wants to perform chaining. In addition to ConnectChainer, this class adds the capability to perform stateless, simple load balance server connections among a set of IP addresses.

The same mechanism is used to set multiple server addresses as with a single destination address: the Router class sets a list of IP addresses in the session.target_address attribute.
