  Hi redbox,

  You do not need to deploy again when the backend's IP changes in the DNS. Each cache node, when the DNS TTL expires and a new connection to your backend is needed, will query the DNS again.

  Hi

  Thank you for your reply.

  That's Good! I've always been thinking it must re-deploy the VCL. Because according to this topics,when backend's IP changes in the dns, It must reload the VCL.
