[lvs-users] basic questions about ipvsadm configuration

[Hatt Tom <net.study.sea@xxxxxxxxx>]

hi:

   I am trying to startup my lvs cluster , I refer to hoeto doc , it tells
me
to do this on realserver:
ifconfig lo:0 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.255 broadcast 192.168.1.10 up
which 192.168.1.10 is VIP .

I want to know what does this command mean ?and what is its use ?

If I access VIP ,VIP route my request to realserver ,then realserver reply
to me directly or to balance server ?


thanks!
