Re: LVS as part of a traffic path?

Hi,

it seems to be that my wording in my first posting was not precise
enough (or my thoughts are too confusing ;-) ...)


My basic question behind all is:

is it possible to use two director node for a group of real servers in
a topology (as I tried to give in my first posting) so  that they are
on different sides of the RS but are tightly bound  in a way, that
they direct a given traffic (IP network) through the same RS?

              e.g. Internet
