ifdepd implements dependencies between network interfaces in a
|
||
|
|
reliable way. If any of the source interfaces fails, ifdepd sets all
|
||
|
|
destination interfaces to state down. If all source interfaces are active,
|
||
|
|
ifdepd sets all destination interfaces to state up.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, it can be used with carp(4) to provide failover functionality
|
||
|
|
on gateways/firewalls.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ifdepd is a simple replacement for ifstated and was written because of problems
|
||
|
|
with ifstated.
