VIP interfaces

VIP (virtual IP address) are defined using nework_vip_interfaces variable. Implementation is operating system specific itself. Currently OpenBSD uses CARP (Command Address Redundancy Protocol) and Linux uses VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) with keepalived daemon.

Parameters:

device: physical network device
vhid: router/host ID
ipaddr: virtual ip address
netmask: netmask for virtual ip address (optional on Linux)
pass: password for auththenticating advertisements
priority: used for elections higher value is preferred master value can be between 0 and 240 (optional)

Example:

network_vip_interfaces:

device: eth0
vhid: 1
ipaddr: 192.0.2.1
netmask: 255.255.255.0
pass: secret
