not many people need LVS-Tun. The provider sets up his rules to include
or exclude whatever he wants. If a customer needs to ship packets with
src_addr=VIP:port, for legitimate reasons, then the provider should allow it.
It's the providers job to help you with your work.
If the provider won't help you with your work, you don't use that provider.
