means that either ext_if or int_if is still leftt on the machine with
one failked card. This of course mucks up the routing! So my question
is, how do I best handle this?
CARP does this. From the manpage:
net.inet.carp.preempt:
Allow virtual hosts to preempt each other. It is also used to failover
carp interfaces as a group. When the option is enabled and one of the
carp enabled physical interfaces goes down, advskew is changed to 240 on
all carp interfaces. See also the first example. Disabled by default.
My solution is that I have now started
coding a small daemon that will down the other interface
automatically should one fail.
That would be ifstated in the tree (not built by default)
