Hello, 

I need to configure a STATIC VMAC for the cluster VIP , but I don't find where.

Do you have any idea of how to configure this for High Availibility mode ?

Best regards.

How to enable ClusterXL Virtual MAC (VMAC) mode 

[Oussama_Kadim1]

Hello,

Sorry for the late answer, I read this KB, but I don't find the solution.

For more precision, I do not need to have a Dynamic VMAC, I would like to add a manuel MAC that the sysadmin gave me.

So is it possible to fix a manuel VMAC on checkpoint ?

You can influence the MAC address that is used for the ClusterXL VIP by setting the fwha_mac_magic kernel parameter.

Setting the entire MAC address to a arbitrary value is not supported.

VRRP (as opposed to ClusterXL) support a VMAC mode where you can specify a specific MAC.
