It would be useful in multitier LVSs if the first layer of
servers (say the httpd running on the realserver) could then
connect to the next layer (say the database) through the
director, which is balancing both layers. Currently
an LVS-DR realserver can't be a client of the LVS.
Ludo has proposed a scheme to allow this. If anyone is
interested in trying it, and getting it to work if it
doesn't already, then here's the scheme.
