Supporting dual homed servers in FWLB design
In Figure 23, the internal server is dual homed and uses active-standby NICs. VRRP Extended
(VRRP-E) is configured on both Internal ServerIron ADX A and Internal ServerIron ADX B. Internal
ServerIron A is the VRRP-E master, while internal ServerIron B is the VRRP-E backup. (Refer to the
"Configuring VRRP and VRRP-E" chapter of the ServerIron ADX Switch and Router Guide for
information on VRRP-E.)
The server NIC that connects to the VRRP-E master ServerIron ADX is active and the one that
connects to the VRRP-E backup ServerIron ADX is standby.
