[lvs-users] netfilter match for ipvs connections

[Bgs]

  Hi,

What is it you really want to achieve?

Inbound should be allowed through (that's why you set up lvs in the 
first place). If you want to block outbound connections you can do it 
even without conntrack by blocking outbound SYNs.

Regards
Bgs
