Dear Hatt Tom,
see
http://www.austintek.com/LVS/LVS-HOWTO/HOWTO/LVS-HOWTO.LVS-DR.html docu sample for keepalived as LB : www.keepalived.org/pdf/UserGuide.pdf‎
docu sample for ldirectord as LB :
http://www.tomvernon.co.uk/blog/2012/03/load-balanced-linux-web-cluster/ For real Productive Internet Services i wuold suggeest don´t use rfc1912 addresses at LVS-DR and realservers with LVS-DR.
see page :
http://www.ultramonkey.org/papers/lvs_tutorial/html Figure 2: LVS Direct Routing
In some words :
An Traffik-requestor ( end user with webbrowser i.e ) request to open i.e www.test.org at his PC
That page have IP 217.145.96.131 as it sample ( VIP ) IP
The LB´s( 2 or more servers) manage the Virtual IP(VIP ) , IPVS kernel table been managed by keepalived or ldirectord .
Thus , the traffik that reach the VIP been redirected from the LB´s IPVS to realserver using arp discover
( some allowed to correct my wording here .. :-) )
Real servers must be configured to accept traffic for the virtual server's IP address ( configured at lo:? , noarp usage at kernel)
Then the realserver directly answer to the traffik requestor.
see page :
http://www.ultramonkey.org/papers/lvs_tutorial/html Figure 2: LVS Direct Routing
There are more DR configuration variants with i.e fwmark .
Depends on your network setup ( i.e behind an filewall, NAT Router or others )
My own HOME Cluster setup are use rfc1912 , i am BEHIND an NAT Router have only one Public IPv4 but an dynamic class /48 IPV6 as well.
Sutch apply with strange behavios ( i.e arp issues ) some times .
