Hi Adrian, Joe and all
I now have one half of LVS-NAT and ethernet bridging working.
Client -> Realserver(direct over bridge) OK
Client -> VIP on LD OK and LD -> Realserver OK (Load Balancing)
The only problem thats left is Realserver -> LD -> Client (i.e. the
response)
What I am trying to understand is that even if the Realserver gw address
is the router
and not the LD, the packet still has to go through the LD because of the
bridging.
What do I have to do on the LD to have IPVS pick up the packet and
masquerade it (rewrite it to VIP->CIP)?
Thanks, Serge

It doesn't. It "forces" a gateway, in order to simplify the routing
tables.
The machine that does proxy-arp behave as it was an explicit gateway.
Theoretically you can advertise it's address using ARP from other
machine.
