If a request comes to a VIP off the same physical SI port that the VIP
would like to balance the request back to then you end up with a layer 2
traffic routing conflict as the source and destination are the same.  If
this is your case then you need to juggle where servers are (port-wise)
to prevent this conflict.  

Hope this helps.

Cheers... Karl

Hello,

I just added a virtual server (jp-vip), and a couple of real servers to
out SI, however we were out of ports on the SI so I attached a
non-managed Dell Gb switch to one of the ports (e13) on the SI.
Everything thing seemed to work at first. I can get to the site from
outside, and all real server directly connected to the SI can connect to
jp-vip without any problem.  However I'm unable to connect to jp-vip
from any of the real servers connected to the Dell switch. The real
servers on the dell switch can connect to any of the other VIPs on the
SI. All real servers, and VIPs are on the same subnet.

I'm pretty new to SLB, and networking in general and would appreciate
any suggestions. I feel there must be a pretty simple solution to this
that I'm missing.

thanks,
-joel
