Hi Graeme, I'm unable to test that. I do a tcpdump, on both the VIP and the RS, and the traffic shows up on both, but it doesn't go back to the CIP. and I don't know how to continue, because all the how-tos indicate that the realservers send their data back to the CIP directly. (RS can't see the CIP)
Now I don't want the realservers sending back to the CIP directly, because this will expose the IP of the realserver, which I can't have. So, in essence, the LVS has to be a GW for all the traffic. is this possible? better yet, if I create an LVS with just 1 nic, and if the realserver sends directly to the CIP: would doing a tracedump, or a network sniffer who the realserver IP?
