DSR load balancing assumes the real servers know about the load balanced VIP and is generally configured on a loopback.
The problem with this I think is that Radiator responds with a source address of where the packet leaves. (at least that’s been my experience). Most clients will probably ignore the response as it’s coming from a different address. With Radiator being Perl, I don’t think you can force Radiator to answer from a specific source address on the server. NAT will work via the F5, you just have to make sure that the response traffic goes back out to the load balancer it came in on. -- Robert inoc.net!rblayzor XMPP: rblayzor.AT.inoc.net PGP Key: 78BEDCE1 @ pgp.mit.edu > On Jul 27, 2016, at 1:38 PM, shaun gibson <xcor...@gmail.com> wrote: > > i've used direct server return for radius and it seemed to work well : > > http://blog.haproxy.com/2011/07/29/layer-4-load-balancing-direct-server-return-mode/ > https://devcentral.f5.com/articles/the-disadvantages-of-dsr-direct-server-return > > using the f5 for inbound and outbound traffic nat will also work, just > depends what your requirements are ... _______________________________________________ radiator mailing list radiator@open.com.au http://www.open.com.au/mailman/listinfo/radiator
