If I have a VS-DR real-server with 

lo:0=VIP
eth0=RIP

and I set priority routing so that packets from the VIP go 
to the router and the default gw goes to the DIP, then the
VS-DR LVS works (as expected).

The reason I want to do this is to make sure that calls from clients
at the RIP (rather than the VIP) don't get sent out the router.

I'd like something
like a ping check to show that the routes are working (sure
I can look at the tables, but what if they're not implemented
properly, or I misinterpret them). Is there anyway to ping with
src_addr set to some IP or ping with sorce interface =lo?
