I guess that you are running Linux 2.2.xx for the real server, its
ARP device does the ARP response, which will make the LVS/DR not
work. Because in the LVS/DR, the VIP is shared by the load balancer
and the real servers, only the load balancer does the ARP response
for the VIP to accept the incoming request packets, the real servers
don't do ARP response but they can process packets destined for
VIP directly.
To avoid the arp problem of Linux 2.2.xx, please try to configure
the VIP on the dummy network device instead of the loopback alias
device.
