Hi Scott,

I am currently working on a redundant firewall setup with keepalived which seems to be similar to yours. Therefore I’d be thankful if you might answer me some questions:

* If you add a new virtual_address or virtual_route, do you need to do a failover each time? If yes, does this work reliable for you? I had decided against doing the ip/routing configuration within keepalived for this reason.
* How many virtual_addresses and virtual_routes do you manage with keepalived?
* What does advert_int do?

Best Regards

Janno
