ipvsadm -L -c -n should do the trick. Also, you shouldn't need that MASQ rule unless you need to MASQ traffic originating from inside your private network. LVS handles all LVS related NATing. Be careful .. you must use the lower case 'c' in this command as the uppercase 'C' will CLEAR your ipvs table and break things. Hope this helps.
