There is a SNAT patch for LVS out on the Internet somewhere, but it is
not supported by RedHat. With RHEL, none of the three (DR,NAT, TUN)
mechanisms modify the source IP of the packets.
If you use LVS-NAT, you need to make sure the real server routes the
packet back through the LVS director so the 'un-NAT' can happen
correctly before the request goes back to the client.
