I haven't had much to do with LVS in the last few years, so I may not have the correct answer here. In the earlier versions of lvs, it was possible to set up an lvs with CIP, VIP, and DIPs all on the same network. Once you go to separate networks for the VIP and DIPs, you have to regard the LVS as a black box network wise. ie you only connect with the VIP:lvs_port (and packets come back from the VIPs on the realservers). LVS controlls the routing of packets on the DIP network to the LVS'ed ports. You aren't supposed to connect with anything in the DIP:lvs_port network from the outside. In this case a machine in the DIP network won't be able to connect to the VIP:lvs_port either.
