Creating an IPMP Group Using Probe-Based and Link-State Failure Detection
(BUI)
Create one or more "underlying" IP interfaces that will be used as components
of the IPMP group. Each interface must have an IP address to be used as the
probe source (see Creating a Single Port Interface (BUI)).
Do not use probe-based failure detection when there no systems (other than the
cluster peer) on the same subnet as the IPMP test addresses that are configured
to answer ICMP echo requests.
