D.4.2 Configuration for creating a highly reliable network on KVM guest a single system (Configuration 2)

This section describes the operation of the configuration (configuration 2) to create highly reliable communications on KVM guests of a single system.

If GLS on the KVM guest is using the primary interface (eth0), perform HUB monitoring (using ping) for HUB1 via the virtual bridge (br0) and physical NIC (eth1) on the KVM host. If a failure occurs on HUB1, GLS on the guest OS maintains communications by switching from the primary interface (eth0) to the secondary interface (eth1).
In addition, perform HUB monitoring (using ping) for HUB 2 via br1 and eth2 on the KVM host after the NIC has been switched because eth1 is used for the NIC in use.
