Hi,
I use a linux firewall with iptables and that is a dedicated firewall, for
the used firewall
rules just look at the Windows Media and Real Media site's.

ut=firewall&producttype=servers
http://service.real.com/firewall/adminrs.html
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/serve/firewall.asp
But i think that basicly every firewall can do the job.
And the type of LVS is direct routing ( i think this one is the best for
streaming becuase NAT has a extra delay for a few ms).
Here a overview of what i have
