We do this by just adding the IP addresses of every member of the
cluster, plus the cluster virtual IP, to the NRPE allowed_hosts lists
and switch access tables.  Otherwise it gets a bit awkward in having to
make your HA software (linux_HA?) change your default router to force
the virtual interface (and then change back on fail back).
