Bypass a virtual server for outbound response

We have one virtual server takes all the client requests. Most of the requests will be load-balanced by this virtual server. However, some requests need to be forwarded to another virtual server. We are trying to use this to solve the browser cross-domain scripting problem for an AJAX application.

 

 

Our question is, is it possible that the responses can be sent back to the client by the second virtual server, without involving the the first virtual server?

 

 

Thank you for any suggestion!

    I would imagine that the client would drop any packet that didn't return from VS-01, since that is where it set up its connection. I think where we're not getting your question is where you say VS-01 is forwarding requests to VS-02...are you saying the client is redirected to VS-02, or are the nodes for VS-01 making the request to VS-02? If the latter then the original client is no longer the client for that transaction, the VS-01 node is.
