Abstract
A mechanism for replacing a first internet protocol (IP) address with a second IP address in a response to a request to a server from an application is disclosed. A processing device may receive a request from an application and forward the request to a server. The processing device may receive a response from the server, where the response includes a first IP address. The processing device may generate a second IP address and replace the first IP address in the response with the second IP address. The processing device may send the response to the application.
