you could give the director another IP address (e.g. an ip_alias) and
make sure that the realservers don't use their VIP address when talking
to it.
you could do this by using a private network, say 192.168.x.x, for
direct communications between the realservers and the director.
e.g. set it up so that the machines have the following aliases:
director - 192.168.1.1
real server 1 - 192.168.1.2
real server 2 - 192.168.1.3
real server 3 - 192.168.1.4
real server 4 - 192.168.1.5
