Good day All.

I have a doubt about the test Ips in the IPMP group and the daemon's (mpathd) 
use of it to probe the target systems and detect failure.

Lets say i have qfe0 and qfe1 in the IPMP group group1.
Questions are:

1. Do the test IPs on this interfaces have to be in the same subnet (e.g 
10.5.30.5 and 10.5.30.6 v/s 10.5.30.5 and 10.5.31.5)

2. The Data IP (which will float) accross this 2 interfaces and which 
application will be using also have to be in the subnet?
(e.g 10.5.30.7)

3. Target hosts, does it have to be the hosts in the same subnet or reachable 
via immediate router or it can be any where in the network.Please provide 
example of configuring target hosts (in both scenarios if the 2nd scenario of 
target host being somewhere in the network table). 

4. Any suggestions on using Link based failure v/s probe based failure detection

Thanks for the help and thank for looking.
