Edge routers will see two equal cost routes via OSPF

1.2.4.1/28  via 1.2.3.6
1.2.4.1/28  via 1.2.3.6


I think you mean .7 --^


Cisco per-flow load balancing will install both routes into the router  
FIB and load balance inbound traffic to each director.

LVS-NAT won't work because of the requirement that returning traffic  
has to pass through the correct director.  LVS-DR would probably work  
fine, the real servers could then send the return traffic directly  
back to the routers.

FWIW, I read somewhere that in this scenario you will want to run the
sync daemon as a master and a slave on both directors, so they will 
merge their changes.
