on the realserver the service is listening on the VIP (as it
must, because that's where the client sent the packet). The
realserver replies from the VIP. The packet goes back to the
client. The RIP is needed so that the director can find its
MAC address and send a layer 2 packet from MAC_DIP->MAC_RIP.
