I think the fwmark approach might work. And I like this since 
load-balancing with LVS is better for me because I have all my other 
services on it.
I'm keeping all traffic going through the Asterisk box with 
canreinvite=no. canreinvite=yes would present a further scenario as the 
endpoints would then end up in direct communication for RTP.
You'll have to excuse me if I've oversimplified this. I have not used 
fwmarks before.

So let's see, I'm using keepalived so in the conf I guess I would have 
something like:
virtual service RS_IP 5060 { # SIP
persistent...
virtual service fwmark 1 { # SIP RTP
persistent...

In iptables (directors):
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p udp -d 192.168.1.27-28 --dport 
10000:20000 -j MARK --set-mark 1 # SIP RTP: where -d has ip of real servers

In iptables (realservers): # only for NAT, what about DR?
iptables -A PREROUTING -t mangle -d <VIRTUAL_IP> -j MARK --set-mark 1 # 
route back to director

Does this look reasonable?

Gerry
