IPMP - IP Multipath

IPMP is something new i learnt in this project. To avoid single point of failure to your Public(& Virtual) IP/Private IP in a RAC environment you can Implement Multipathing of IP Address. In this configuration you configure a set of Network Inteface Cards (NIC's) on each cluster node to support an IP Address. Here is how it works

ipmp2: IPMP Pic2

One of the NIC will be used as the Primary link for all communications. Upon failure of the Primary NIC, IPMP will automatically fail the physical(& virtual) IP to the standby NIC

ipmp1: IPMP Pic1
