If I take HA Linux cluster with 2 nodes A+B with redundant channels,
I'd like knowing if it's possibile to ping machines group which contains the 
other node + a pc on lan. Service 1 is on A, while 2 on B.
I already read in ha.cf this note: don't use a cluster node as ping node !
But, if from B server I can ping external ethernet interface of node A, I'm 
almost sure that my lan is alive because this ping interface is linked to my 
lan, while if I have no answer so I can ping another machine in my lan and 
accordinf to this answer I can decide if node is or not alive.
I'm interesting to check my external eth. interfaces on nodes with ipfail 
module, but only the opposite inetrface + another pc on lan;
from A I ping ext eth of B + another pc on lan, and from B I ping ext eth of A 
+ another pc on lan.
I know that ping group must be the same for both A and B !
