$ext_ip is something reachable from the "outside"; it just has to be
something which can get to the nft box that isn't the real server or the
same host. We have a public IP in this case.
$vip is something that is on the local LAN "behind" the nft box. In our
case this is an rfc1918 IP address.
$real_ip is on the same subnet as the $vip and is just a way for IPVS to
resolve the neighbor of one of the real servers in order to forward the
packet. With this example configuration, IPVS is basically equivalent to:
ip route add $vip via $real_ip
Except that it hooks the input path because $vip is expected to be bound
locally...and normally you have multiple real servers and some algorithm
selected for balancing. So, I guess I didn't mention that, and you also
need to bind $vip to the nft box, and also to the real server if you
want it to actually be able to respond.
"LVS-HOWTO" has info on how to set up LVS-DR. The only difference here is
that we're using it in a relatively new (2009) configuration where "DR"
(Direct Return) mode is actually symmetric and replying back to the nft
box (symmetric) instead of directly to a separate router. This lets NAT
actually work since it can see traffic in both directions.
