Traffic Manager uses DNS to direct client requests to the most appropriate service
endpoint based on a traffic-routing method and the health of the endpoints. An
endpoint is any Internet-facing service hosted inside or outside of Azure.
Traffic Manager
Traffic Manager uses Routing Methods to determine response to client
requests. Routing Methods can be any one of the following.
1)Priority – Traffic Manager sends all requests to the highest priority endpoint
available.
2)Weighted – Distributes client traffic based on a weighted priority.
3)Performance – Clients are directed to the endpoint with the lowest latency.
4)Geographic – Directs endpoints based on the geographic location.
5)Multi-value – Returns the IP address of all healthy endpoints.
6) Subnet – Maps client to a specific endpoint based on source IP.
