About:
Local IP Takeover provides network link redundancy
within a single server that has multiple network
interface cards (NICs) with each NIC connected to
separate network switches. If the primary NIC
fails (i.e. it cannot ping its default gateway),
the "service" IP (the IP that the outside world
connects to) will automatically float to the
secondary NIC and a specially crafted ARP
(utilizing send_arp) will be broadcast on the
local network, thereby instructing all other hosts
to update their local ARP cache. The result is
minimal service downtime. Plus, no manual
intervention is required in the event that a
network card, cable, or switch breaks.
