Accessing Load Balancer from internal IP

jodok
hi,

we're trying the load balancer for http (network security) and have the problem, that we can't access the load-balanced service from the internal lan.

the load balancer is listening on an external ip x.x.69.201 and available from everywhere (tried "automatic filter rule", but also explicit rule).
it has two internal servers as upstream (10.x.x.11, 10.x.x.12).
access from world - fine.
but i can't access x.x.69.201:80 from both hosts, and also not from other hosts in this 10.x.x subnet.

the 10.x.x subnet is masqueraded to the internet.

if i add a source nat rule to a host in the 10.x.x.x subnet i'm able to access the load balancer.
what i've seen load balancing is done with iptables, do i need additional rules?

thanks for your help

    That KB didnt seem to apply.

    I have an external IP that load balanced to two internal IP addresses.  This works externally.

    We also want internal users to use the load balanced IP.   If we attempt to connect to the external load balance IP it doesnt go anywhere.

    We arent using DNS...just the pure IP.
