NAME

     transponder - backend node for load balancing services

SYNOPSIS

     transponder [-c config] address [address ...]

DESCRIPTION

     For each address specified, registers with the carrousel(8) program
     running at that address and announces willingness to serve connections.
     It also transmits information about the current capacity, so that
     connections are distributed fairly amongst backend nodes.  Multiple
     addresses may be specified for a single host for multipath routing.

OPTIONS

     -c config
             Read configuration from config instead of the default
             configuration file.
