Yes, my terminology is less than normal today,

So is this something you would recommend we explore, or just go back to
using a dual server system?  When it does work, does it work reliably or
does it sometimes fail?

Sorry, again terminology, but then again, let me ask the question.  We
add additiona IP's in to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth:<id>.
Is that considered secondary or alias?

Or should we be using ip addr add?

We reject everything to begin with.  I was wanted to make sure I was on
the right track.  I still assume that I want to use IN and not FORWARD
(at least at this point) as the traffic is technically coming into the
firewall).

BTW, thanks for the quick response.
