OK. Don't know it, sorry
There are docos on setting up LVS-Tun on FreeBSD on HOWTO
as well as in the mailing list. but I found that sometime
they offer different settings for LVS-Tun. for example :
are we using interface tunl0 or gif0 under FreeBSD ?
some are suggesting to put the VIP in lo0 as well as in
tunl0. some are suggesting to set up IP-tunnel from linux
box ( as director ) -> free bsd ( as real server ) and the
other way around. I believe 'ldirectord' does the
ipvsadm/ip-in-ip wrap internally
no. ldirectord is a wrapper around LVS that does failout.
ipip encapsulation is done by LVS.
and send it to the realserver and hence there's no need to
set a separate tunnel just for this, no ?
I've managed to setup LVS-Tun Linux ( director ) -> Linux ( realserver )
previously. and on Linux real-server
i'd just need to do the following ( this is after getting the director up
and using 'ipip' forwarding method ):
root# modprobe ipip
root# ifconfig tunl0 192.168.2.72 netmask 255.255.255.255 broadcast
192.168.2.72 up
2.72 being the VIP address
I'm just wondering what would be the FreeBSD equivalent of those 2 commands?
for example, i can't create a tunl0 interface on FreeBSD.
ifconfig tunl0 create
ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE: Invalid argument
I don't think the ipip device on *BSD is tunl
