-I'm sad to see that this page is blank,  I'm trying to figure this one out at the moment and there is a bit of a problem with how the protocol works.  I'm using direct routing.
-#Client Requests the file from the LVS '''Client:12345 > LVS:69'''
-#Packet Forwarded from LVS to Real Server
-#Real Server Retuns first Data Packet '''LVS:23456 > Client:12345'''
-#Client sends ACK to LVS on the port the data came from. '''Client:12345 > LVS:23456
-The problem here is that port 23456 is not open on the LVS only on the real server.
-I tried some iptables source address mangling so that step 3  looks like '''Real Server:23456 > Client:12345'''
-but it does not matter, in step 4 the client still sends the ACK to LVS.
-I'm out of ideas on how to make TFTP work with LVS so any input would be appreciated.
