From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98) Description of problem: When I set a service to port 0 as a wildcard port, I see the service in ipvsadm, but the routes never show up. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create an LVS setup using port 0 on the virtual service 2.Start Piranha 3. Actual Results: You can see the service with ipvsadm, but there are no routes. Expected Results: The routes should open up like any other virtual service. Additional info: When I tested this, I took a working setup on port 80 and changed it to port 0 without making any other changes. I used "/etc/rc.d/init.d/pulse restart" to stop and start the daemons. I will attach a file containing my lvs.cf, the output of 'ipvsadm -Ln' and the relevant portion of the log file.

Piranha is just a service monitor and does not define or have anything to do with routes. That's all part of ipvsadm, ipchains, netfilter, router, etc. Piranha just starts a monitor process, one per service (which is defined as a n address and port number), and monitors that service. If the service goes down, piranha removes it's definition, if it comes back, it's re-added. There are PLENTY of ipvsadm commands you could create that cannot be mapped into piranha. ipvs is a generic ip routing filter that can include wildcards, piranha is just an individual service monitor. Port 0 is a wildcard port. Piranha cannot start a monitor that means "all ports". It can only monitor (or connect to or read from) a single port. How could it monitor "all ports"? It has no information about any client connection attempts, and certainly it should not start 65535 nanny daemons. You have to define each service individually.
