Actually I would like to further clarify if workaround 1 is even doable ...

It seems to me that the IP flexalgo paradigm does not have a way for more
granular then destination prefix forwarding.

So if I have http traffic vs streaming vs voice going to the same load
balancer (same dst IP address) there seems to be no way to map some
traffic (based on say port number) to take specific topology.

That's pretty coarse and frankly very limiting for applicability of IP
flex-algo. If I am correct the draft should be very explicit about this
before publication.

Kind regards
R.
