It depends on what you are doing. If you are running something like a
squid proxy that doesn't really need to maintain state and listens on
all interfaces by default, all you need is to float an IP address to a
backup machine if the primary fails and back when the primary comes back
up. It only gets messy when the apps need to be constrained or restarted.
