Yes in 13.1 release a new feature is added in NetScaler which enables you to bind services or service groups to lb/gslb virtual servers with different priorities. Services with highest priority will be the first preference and load balancing algorithm would be applied among these subset of services. Along with priority setting for the services, new policy type known as LB Policy is also added by which you could a assign priority preferences based on incoming client traffic or client data.
