On each back-end real servers that you intend to use with the Keepalived load balancer, ensure that the routing table contains a default route for the virtual IP address of the load balancer's internal network interface.
For example, if the virtual IP address is
10.0.0.100, you can use the
ip command to examine the routing table and
to set the default route:
#ip route show10.0.0.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 10.0.0.71 #ip route add default via 10.0.0.100 dev eth0#ip route showdefault via 10.0.0.100 dev eth0 10.0.0.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 10.0.0.71
To make the default route for eth0 persist
across reboots, create the file
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0:
# echo "default via 10.0.0.100 dev eth0" > /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0
