You do not need REDIRECT rule on the director, use
masquerading method for the local RIP1 and DR method for
RIP2. Use REDIRECT on real server 2. For example:
# DNAT by IPVS: VIP:80 -> RIP1:50000
ipvsadm -a -f 100 -r 172.17.0.16:50000 -w 100 -m
# DR as before: VIP:80 sent as VIP:80 to nexthop 172.17.0.17
ipvsadm -a -f 100 -r 172.17.0.17 -w 100
Then add REDIRECT or the above DNAT only on
real server 2 (172.17.0.17). By this way traffic from
real server 2 will not go to client via director.
As you notice, the problem you are now facing
is that from client point of view, the remote port is 80
and real server 2 does not alter it in replies.
Real server 2 can return only with the port it
received. That is why the DNAT/REDIRECT for port
should happen on the real server and not on director.
Otherwise, we have to send replies via director for
proper assignment of port but it is something we
try to avoid.
