Where does that come in the block diagram of Linux network packet handling? Documentation note: I've been reading "NAT" as referring to the other Linux network service in netfilter, rather than as a more generic use of the term. I'd suggest making this a bit clearer in the documentation -- that LVS NAT does NOT use the normal Linux NAT that people have mostly at least heard of. Does it conflict with setting up regular NAT to support outbound connections originating from the realservers (such as to a database)? Does it block routing to external addresses other than through the NAT entries? And where can I see those entries (I don't see any way to list them with ipvsadm which is the only tool I know to talk to ip_vs). Should I not be trying to do this with NAT, use DR instead? I've been trying to avoid having to muck about with the installation of each of the realserver OS installs that DR seems to require, but I can do it if I need to; it seems to be documented.
