Hello,

I am trying to set up IPMP on a ethernet link. eri0 is connect to the LAN,
assigned ip: 192.168.0.1.

IPMP is desired to be implemented in order to keep a critical application
running. I want IPMP failover capabilities, if eri0 fails, I want to
enable qfe1 automatically.

Now, I have a qFE card, I want to add each interface to the LAN and the
IPMP group as well.

I am confused about:

1. What IP address should be assigned to qfe1 to qfe4 ?
2. What are the differences between IPMP types (probe or link-base4d) ?
3. What are the entries to be added in: /etc/hostname.eri0 and
/etc/hostname.qfe1 ?

Thanks,
