I don't think thats going to work. What he made it sound like, is that
this is two different physical servers, each off a seperate physical
router. Both of those routers are headed by a single router. If you put
the below on the router that heads the other two, what will happen, is a
tcp conversation will begin with "server1" but then the packets will
alternate to "server2". You can't load balance "per packet" accross two
seperate physical servers. You CAN load balance per packet over two
seperate PATHS, but the end station that you are talking to must be the
same.
What has to be done here, is that he uses inbound NAT on the heading
router. Each of the two physical servers should be numbered DIFFERENTLY.
It is trivial to have NAT round robin between incoming connections. The
thing is, this provides no failover. for that, something more advanced,
like l4 switching or WCCP must be introduced.
