I am implementing a redundant router-firewall solution with
active/passive failover for a 'floating' ip on BOTH the Internal and
External interfaces. I'm a bit confused at the moment by the
documentation, so I'd like to ask for some clarification/direction on
how to best proceed.
Scenario:
External Fail-over
Ip: 10.10.10.1
/ \
-----------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------
| Firewall 1
| | Firewall
2 |
| External interface eth0: 10.10.10.2
| | External interface eth0: 10.10.10.3 |
| Internal interface eth1: 192.168.1.2
| | Internal Interface eth1: 192.168.1.3 |
-----------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------
\
/
Internal Fail-over
IP: 192.168.1.1
The heartbeat can be accomplished by serial, ucast, bcast or whatever
is best. Again, this is an active/passive setup, with the 'fail-over'
IP's only active on one node at a time.
Note that the active node in the cluster will also be configured as a
LVS director, providing load balanced services for http/https servers on
the Internal network. I assume that the LVS startup can be handled by
linux-ha as a call to an external script on node failover (my
understanding of linux-ha is running thin here)?
Any initial direction you can provide is greatly appreciated.
TIA.
