The monitoring operation of a IP address resource issues a "ip a l dev (...)" 
command and looks if the IP address is still bound to the interface. Any 
failure (i.e. interface down, IP address vanished) results in an error of the 
monitoring operation and a reaction of the cluster.

Additionally use a ping resource. That resoruce sends a ping to an IP address 
outside of the cluster. If the node receives the answer it can be pretty sure 
that the attached network works.
