I'm trying to get basic load balancing working with keepalived. It seems to be 
working but I can only connect to the virtual_server IP from the load balancer 
itself. If I try to make requests from other servers on our network they time 
out. Here is our config:

global_defs {
    notification_email {
     person@xxxxxxxxxx<mailto:person@xxxxxxxxxx>
   }
   notification_email_from 
lb_cluster1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:lb_cluster1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
   smtp_server 10.140.0.140
   smtp_connect_timeout 30
}

vrrp_instance VI_1 {
   state MASTER
   interface eth0
   virtual_router_id 51
   priority 101
   smtp_alert
   virtual_ipaddress {
       10.110.7.159
   }
}

virtual_server 10.110.7.159 80 {
    delay_loop 10
    protocol TCP
    lb_algo rr
    lb_kind NAT
    persistence_timeout 7200

real_server 10.110.7.51 80 {
    weight 1
    TCP_CHECK {
      connect_timeout 5
      connect_port 80
    }
}
real_server 10.110.7.52 80 {
    weight 1
    TCP_CHECK {
      connect_timeout 5
      connect_port 80
    }
}
}

output from ipvsadm:

ip addr show
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP 
qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:50:56:b7:3e:f2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 10.110.7.157/24 brd 10.110.7.255 scope global eth0
    inet 10.110.7.159/32 scope global eth0
    inet6 fe80::250:56ff:feb7:3ef2/64 scope link
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

curl from the localhost:

curl 10.110.7.159
<html><body><h1>It works!</h1></body></html>

>From any other server or host on our network (same subnet or not) it times out.

I did notice that most other examples for keepalived and lb_kind NAT are using 
2 different subnets but we'd like to avoid that if possible. It's also possible 
that it's required but I'm not totally sure how or why.
