No you don't. LVS-DR (i assume this is what you mean, judging by your
option B's 'Bad' description) just forwards the packet to a realserver.
This sees the request as if the packet would come straight from the
client (eg. not through LVS; it's completely transparent). It will send
the reply back straight to the client.
