Part of the standard deal at this datacenter is that you can have a
6-address subnet made available per server for free. However, in order
for a number of servers to share this, they need to be physically on
the same net too. The RIPs will be whatever, but my VIPs will be from
that extra subnet.
I can't quite work out if their IP Spoofing prevention will screw up
things in this situation too, but at least I have LVS-NAT as a last
resort. Both LVS-DR and LVS-TUN seem to me to be more elegant
solutions, but ...

In this case the VIPs are in a range that was dished out by the
datacenter.
