lvs

I have configured a Linux virtual network with following configuration

172.17.6.112-  VIP
172.17.6.111-  Linux Director
|
|----------172.17.6.113 --- Real Server 1
|----------172.17.6.114 --- Real Server 2

I am using direct routing technique. I am unable to test my LVS network. Are there some good scripts/softwares available for load testing. I am running apache2.0 service on them. I came across with testlvs on the internet but am unable to understand its documentation. Are there more simpler ones

I want to test the response time of server using various scheduling algorithms .
