Horms,
As I know, the Director with LVS-NAT rewrites the destination IP address
for incoming packets, and rewrites the source IP address for outgoing packets.
I wonder if the Director can rewrites both the source IP address and
destination IP address for all packets. For example, Director replaces the
destination IP address with real servers' IP address and replaces the source IP
address with Director private IP address for incoming packets. Then real
servers don't have to set the Director as default gateway. LVS can do it? Thank
you
