Description

An VIP configured like:

<vip>
    <mode>ipalias</mode>
    <interface>lo0</interface>
    <uniqid>5abd4e7832f51</uniqid>
    <descr><![CDATA[Test on lo0]]></descr>
    <type>single</type>
    <subnet_bits>32</subnet_bits>
    <subnet>192.168.0.1</subnet>
</vip>

Is not present after booting:

[2.4.3-RELEASE][admin@apu.stevew.lan]/root: ifconfig lo0
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384
    options=600003<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
    inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 
    inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4 
    inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
    nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
    groups: lo

But after resaving the VIP via the GUI is added:

[2.4.3-RELEASE][admin@apu.stevew.lan]/root: ifconfig lo0
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384
    options=600003<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6>
    inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 
    inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4 
    inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
    inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xffffffff 
    nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
    groups: lo

It does not affect other real interfaces.

Works fine for me too, no need to go back into the VIPs and resave.

Hi Luiz,

To have multiple highly available IP's on 1 interface its possible to configure a vip of type "alias" and choose as the interface a vip that has the type "CARP" while that CARP ip is for example on the interface LAN.

        <vip>
            <mode>ipalias</mode>
            <interface>_vip57e6821202aca</interface>
            <uniqid>57e68233b6130</uniqid>
            <descr><![CDATA[This is a IPalias with a CARP parent]]></descr>
            <type>single</type>
            <subnet_bits>24</subnet_bits>
            <subnet>192.168.0.202</subnet>
        </vip>

I forgot about these, I had the 'CARP isn't a interface anymore' thinking in my head.

Should be fixed now.

Thanks!
