Are they really clients? I don't think so (but i can be wrong). Maybe my
explanation for the drawing wasn't correct.  Here's the thing:  a client
uses rdp to make a connection to the lvs. The lvs sends the client to one of
the terminal servers. Once connected there, the user fires up a telnet
session. This telnet session connects to the lvs again (different vip/port),
which sends it to one of our telnet servers. Is the lvs a client then?
