Hi Joe, thanks for the quick reply.
I'd rather not switch to LVS-NAT, simply because of the
amount of connections I'm going to be handling. I am
expecting ~1000 ssh sessions and 300-500 telnet sessions
and I am worried that the load on the director would
suffer.
I have not tested an LVS-NAT director since it was changed
to the netfilter framework for 2.4.x, but according to the
guys who wrote the code, it is supposed to be as fast as
LVS-DR.
Maybe my understanding of LVS-DR is incorrect. I
understand that return packets that are sent from the RS
to the client are not sent through the director.
However, would the reply packets from the client go
through the director in order to get to the RS?
yes.
That was my understanding of LVS-DR, so I thought that the
ipvsadm table should continue to be updated.
no-one's thought it worth their time to have it working
perfectly.
Joe
