Yes, because you are putting the vip in lo:180 on
the real servers. If you do not hide this then they
will answer ARP requests for the VIP and traffic
may end up going directly to one real server rather than the 
Linux Directors.

If you do not want to have to worry about this I would
suggest using LVS-NAT instead of LVS-DR.
