your director keeps state and your firewall keeps state - unless I
misunderstood your question somehow you have no problem

Subject: LVS Directory behind two firewalls
Hi,
I've just started with LVS but everything is running smoothly so far. I have
9
servers split between two firewalls. Each firewall is responsible for 5
public IPs in two different subnets. There's a total of 6 different host
names and, up until now, load balancing was done using DNS round robin for
some of the hosts.
My goal is to have all services run on all servers and load balance across
the
lot. However, I realized that the two firewalls will cause me problems due
to
routing back. I've looked at the information in the HOWTO(1) and read the
information I think it points to(2) but still don't understand how it works
on the whole.
So, to state the question simply: How do I ensure that traffic takes the
same
outward path as its inward path?
Regards,
Jason Stubbs
