# apt-cache show vrrpd Description: Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol user-space implementation This package provides an implementation of VRRPv2 as specified in rfc2338. It runs in the Linux kernel's userspace (as root). . VRRP can be used to setup high-availability services in Debian since two machines can use the same (virtual) IP address which is transfered upon failover. Some kernel features need to be enabled (please read the FAQ) #### VRRPD use multicast packet to detect master is down. When multcast packets from master (bigger priority) stop, slave set IP and MAC address from master. Its very simple and usefull. -- Reinaldo de Carvalho http://korreio.sf.net http://python-cyrus.sf.net
