hi ip_vs* developers .. i am new to this mailinglist and i'd just like to say first, that linuxvirtualserver.org is awesome project .. but back to business now.
i am setting up a load balancer for some services and have no problem with configuration when balancing between two different subnets, but i am utterly unable to set it up if want to balance in just one subnet .. my common sense says to me, that for one subnet i should use a SNAT, but it completely omits a snat POSTROUTING rules and balanced packets come to the targets with original client ip address .. i have following configuration: # ipvsadm IP Virtual Server version 1.2.1 (size=4096) Prot LocalAddress:Port Scheduler Flags -> RemoteAddress:Port Forward Weight ActiveConn InActConn TCP 192.168.60.252:ldap rr persistent 360 -> 192.168.100.11:ldap Masq 1 0 0 -> 192.168.100.12:ldap Masq 1 0 0 TCP 192.168.60.252:http rr persistent 360 -> 192.168.60.78:http Masq 1 0 1 ^^ ldap works for me fine. Weird is, that i am using -m (masquerade) method even i have completely no masquerade for *:ldap service .. its's not working with default gateway method .. but it don't hurt since it works fine for me .. *:http service simply does not work with snat with this rule: iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -p tcp -d 192.168.60.78 --dport 80 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.60.252 which can be listed using this: # iptables -t nat -L | sed '/POSTROU/,/^$/!d' Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination SNAT tcp -- anywhere 192.168.60.78 tcp dpt:http to:192.168.60.252 .. but anyway this rule is completely ommited and snoop on target server shows: # snoop -d vnet1 port 80 Using device vnet1 (promiscuous mode) 192.168.60.201 -> 192.168.60.78 HTTP C port=51620 192.168.60.78 -> 192.168.60.201 HTTP R port=51620 192.168.60.201 -> 192.168.60.78 HTTP C port=51620 .. which indicates, that target server tries to reply to client without using snat on balancer .. any help or suggestion will be very appreciated .. thanks and regards ave, daniel _______________________________________________ Please read the documentation before posting - it's available at: http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/ LinuxVirtualServer.org mailing list - lvs-users@LinuxVirtualServer.org Send requests to lvs-users-requ...@linuxvirtualserver.org or go to http://lists.graemef.net/mailman/listinfo/lvs-users
