Hello,
It is suggested to configure the VIP on the real servers , when using
DR (Direct Routing), using the loopback device
(lo:0).

I saw it in a couple of places (including LVS wiki).

My question is : suppose I have 2 NICs on each real server. Is there
any advantage of
configuring the VIP on the loopback device against configuring it on eth1 ?
should configuring the VIP on eth1 work ?

Best,
David S.
