Hello,
I'm trying to get LVS to work in a different configuration than I normally
do and I'm running into some problems. Here is the setup:
What kind of problems?
Clients
|
Hit external address
----------Firewall----------
NATS the external address to 172.27.82.4
So you do a port translation for the VIP. All outgoing traffic from here will be
having the srcIP of your firewall unless you use transparent proxying. This
might yield severe load imbalance.
Director - IP:172.27.82.3
- VIP:172.27.82.4
----------Firewall----------
Is this firewall bridging two collision domains? ITIM: Do, loosly speaking,
172.27.0.0/?? and 172.20.0.0/?? express two different physical networks? If so,
what kind for LVS forwarding method did you choose? ("Almost") Only LVS_TUN will
work in a network topology like that. You could technically use LVS_NAT, however
this would be a rather strange setup. If I may be so impolite as to mention your
placing of the second firewall is rather found wanting.
Real Server 1 - IP:172.20.6.12
Real Server 2 - IP:172.20.6.13
I normally use LVS in a single network setup so this is new to me. Am I
going about this the wrong way? Is this even possible All of the
documentation I've looked through doesn't seem to apply to my configuration.
Check out the documentation on LVS_TUN, if you need to load balance across
collision domains, within private addressable IP ranges.
