You're using Windows realservers, so this is a little more tricky than
it seems.
You have three ways you proceed:
1. Remove the local route to the configured /24 network altogether.
I'm not sure that Windows will let you do that.
2. Add a new route with a lower metric.
route add 172.16.5.0 mask 255.255.255.0 172.16.5.126 metric 1
3. Change the realserver's netmask to 255.255.255.255.
I'm not sure that this would work, as it's a registry hack to do it most
of the time.
I just tested (2) and it worked for me, although you may have to turn
off ICMP redirects on the director in order to make it work as you'd
expect.
