Link-based and probe-based Public network

Link-based

1.Must is supported by the NIC driver
2. " Ipmpstat-i ", to determine if link-based failure detection are supported
3.Enabled by default

Configure active-active IPMP Group with link-based failure detection:
eg.
=========================================================================
ipadm create-ipmp-i net2-i net3 Ipmp0
ipadm create-addr-t static-a 192.168.a.x1/24 ipmp0/v4a ipadm create-addr-t static-a 192.168.A.X2/24
IPMP 0/v4b
ipmpstat-g
ipmpstat-a
netstat-rn

probe-based

1.With Test addresses:
Are assigned only to the underlying interfaces of the IPMP group.
Probe messages are sent to test target systems in the same subnet
test addresses can is IPV4 or IPv6 (link-local only )
Test addresses are valid addresses that can is used but without failover not
recommended!
2.without Test addresses
ICMP probes
transitive probes

Configure Active-standby IPMP Group with transitive probing:
=================================================== ===================
eg.
Ipadm create-ipmp ipmp0
ipadm add-ipmp-i net2-i net3 ipmp0 svccfg-s svc:/network/ipmp setprop config/transitive
-probing=true
svcadm Refresh Svc:/network/ipmp:default
svccfg-s svc:/network/ipmp listprop config/ Transitive-probing
ipadm set-ifprop-p standby=on-m IP net2 ipadm create-addr-t static-a 192.168.a.x1/24 ipmp0/
V4A
route-p Add 192.168.a.0 192.168.a.1
ipmpstat-p
ipmpstat-t ipmpstat-g ipmpstat-a Netstat-rn
Ping 192.168.a.x1

Note:link-based and probe-based detection types are not mutually exclusive
