server - Problems while switching IP and MAC adresses - Ask Ubuntu


i've got 2 ubuntu-servers, each of them 2 ethernet cards. i'm trying switch 1 other high availability purposes. unfortunately, when querying arp mac address of first card (eth0) , not 1 of second card (eth1) ip-address has been dynamically assigned. can do?

example:

server 1:

eth0

  • mac: 00:11:11:11:11:11
  • ip: 192.168.0.1

eth1

  • mac: 02:33:33:33:33:33
  • ip: 192.168.0.3

server 2:

eth0

  • mac: 00:22:22:22:22:22
  • ip: 192.168.0.2

eth1

  • down (goes mac , ip server1 eth1 when server1 goes down)

when execute arp -a 192.168.0.3 command windows machine, result 00:11:11:11:11:11 (eth0) , not 02:33:33:33:33:33 (eth1)

what you're trying not impossible, not optimal neither...

back in xxth century, used exactly you're trying now, in xxist century, use bonding gives both reliability , higher throughput when both cards up.

so forget 2 ip addresses on 2 nics, go 1 ip address on both nics , take advantage of double throughput!
