ProcedureHow to Manually Specify Target Systems for Probe-Based Failure Detection

  1. Log in with your user account to the system where you are configuring probe-based failure detection.

  2. Add a route to a particular host to be used as a target in probe-based failure detection.


    $ route add -host destination-IP gateway-IP -static
    

    Replace the values of destination-IP and gateway-IP with the IPv4 address of the host to be used as a target. For example, you would type the following to specify the target system 192.168.85.137, which is on the same subnet as the interfaces in IPMP group testgroup1.


    $ route add -host 192.168.85.137 192.168.85.137 -static 
    
  3. Add routes to additional hosts on the network to be used as target systems.
