IP Tunneling is supported and works fine under most circumstances.
Today, it requires that clients have functional PMTUD (99.999% of clients
will?) or MSS fixup on the real servers. There's a patch that Julian
worked on that allows for the lvs box to frag the tunneled packets but
I'm not sure what the state of that is.
It is covered pretty clearly on
http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/VS-IPTunneling.html
And
http://www.ultramonkey.org/papers/lvs_tutorial/html/
See this for PMTUD and MSS Fixup, although you are probably better off
running the MSS fixup on each of the real servers. (Just limit it to
the load balanced traffic, ie, source ip of the virtual server
outbound.)
