At the moment, I do not know of any functionality in SolrCloud to 
accomplish this goal.  As I mentioned before, there is work underway to 
make it possible, but it's not available yet.

One thing you could do is include preferLocalShards=true as a URL 
parameter and only send requests to the physical servers (unless they 
are down), but to do that, you'll have to handle load balancing yourself.

Thanks,
