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.
