LVS + Keepalived #12013/08/20

 
Maybe packets are forwarded to a server even if it is down for only the configuration of LVS, so it's better to use Keepalived.
This example shows to configure it on the environment below.
                          |
                       VIP|192.168.0.99
                      eth0|192.168.0.100
                    +----------------+
--------------------| LVS+Keepalived |----------------------
                    +----------------+
                      eth1|10.0.0.100
                          |
+----------+              |               +----------+
|          |10.0.0.30     |      10.0.0.31|          |
| Backend1 |------------------------------| Backend2 |
|   Web    | eth0                     eth0|    Web   |
+----------+                              +----------+

 
Set VIP on Keepalived Server and Packets to the VIP are forwarded to Backend1 and Backend2 Servers with NAT.
Please change the default gateway to internal IP address of Keepalived Server on both Backend Web Servers first. (it's 10.0.0.100 on this example)
[1] Clear the LVS settings first because it is controled by Keepalived.
