You are almost right, yes, partially for arp_announce,
but IPVS like apps need more things to solve this problem. As for
this proxy_arp work it is entirely unrelated :) Hey, I'm not using only
IPVS, it does not take my time from long long time :) Long time ago
I played with proxy_arp and was wondering why it behaves in this way.
I'm ready to leave this idea if the changes become too complex.
