How did you try to break this feature and the system with this change?

It has been observed that this will not update dynamically unless some other load balancer configuration is changed (or the VR is restarted). It is not clear if there is any infrastructure to 'trigger' a push to all existing load balancers to regenerate their configuration since this is global.
