Hi All,
I am experiencing a problem using LVS behind a CheckPoint firewall.
It seems as though several packets are dropped by the firewall as a
result of being "out of sequence" When I ask the firewall administrator what
the problem is, he tells me that he can't be sure, but he has seen this problem
before when he has had other load balancers using a Virtual IP (eth0:0) to
balance incoming packets.
So... with that being said, I have to admit I am a little skeptical of
this assumption that just because I am using a Virtual IP, TCP packets are
getting out of sync... however, with that being said, the firewall
administrator seems to be pretty savvy when it comes to TCP, where as I am
hardly TCP savvy, so I pose the question to the group... Has anyone seen
anything similar to this problem? and if so, what was done to correct it?
Regards,
Rob.
