Hi.

First of all: there in no router between clients and ZLB.

Anyway...I have good and bad news:

The good news:
I've get the service to run ok BUT...with an collateral effect.

HOW: I've changed the "DEFAULT GATEWAY" for the ZLB to the "oficial" gateway of the PUBLIC NETWORK
    * the NETWORK that contains the PUBLIC_ADDRESS of ZLB
    * previously the default gateway was the "oficial" gateway of the administration network (10.0.4.1)

The bad news:
The collateral effect: now I can't access to the ZENLB web interfaces using the 10.0.4.XX private administration address


So...It's possible to use again the original administrative interface (10.0.4.XX) for access to the web interface only from a "secure network"?

* Using the web interface I can't indicate the gateway for the eth0 interface (10.0.4.XX address) cause I can't edit it (it appears the padlock indicating some actions -like edit the interface- are locked)

Regards.

Hi again, I've just read that you've already configured the default gw.
There is any router between  the clients and the ZLB?

Hi Jose Manuel, maybe you're missing to configure the load balancer ip as the default gw for your backends. This is mandatory to make dnat works.

Hi.

I'm trying ZENLB (latest public version: 3.02) as a choice to substitute our ancients Alteon balancers but I have a problem:

We want to balance a web application BUT WE NEED that the backend servers receive the client connections WITH THE IP OF THE ORIGINAL CLIENT.

First I've created a farm with a HTTP profile and runs BUT the IP of the connections is the ZENLB IP, NOT the client IP...so it's useless for us.

So I've tried to create a farm with the L4TNAT profile BUT doesn't run OK:

   - the IP the backend servers receive is the client IP...OK
   - the backend servers sends their response (TCP establishment packets) trough ZENLB...OK
   - but the client receives NO RESPONSE from ZENLB...FAIL

I've tried several network/gateways configurations but none of them seems to run OK, and the online documentation doesn't cover the L4TNAT so...I don't know if I've done something wrong, I doesn't have understood the L4TNAT operation or ZENLB has some bug/problem with the L4TNAT profile.

The network configuration:

ZENLB configuration:
Network:
eth0: 10.0.4.XX -> for administration/cluster
        * Gateway: none
eth1: 192.168.31.100 -> for communicate with backend servers in a private network
        * Gateway: none
eth2: PUBLIC_ADDRESS -> for client access
        * Gateway: "oficial" gateway for the PUBLIC network
Default gateway: 10.0.4.1 -> "oficial" gateway for the 10.0.4 net
      Farm:
Profile: L4TNAT
NAT type: DNAT
Backend server configuration:
eth0: 192.168.31.YY -> Private IP for service
Default gateway: 192.168.31.100 -> the ZENLB IP in the 192.168.31.0 private network

Tcpdump shows:
- CLIENT_IP initial packet -> ZENLB -> Backend Server
    * the path/NAT of the initial packet seems to be OK
- Backend Server ansver -> ZENLB -> ????
    * the "right" packet is received by ZENLB but NOT by he client
    * Perhaps response packet is received by ZENLB but...it comes out from ZENLB?

Any idea?
Thanks
