Failover priority for multiple passive IPMP interfaces
I've been using active-passive IPMP with 2 interfaces for some time and am comfortable with how it works. But I'm curious to know what happens with more than 2 interfaces in the same group.
Take the following example (Solaris 10, and yes I know it's extreme ) :
# dladm show-dev
igb0 link: up speed: 1000 Mbps duplex: full
igb1 link: up speed: 1000 Mbps duplex: full
ixgbe1 link: up speed: 10000 Mbps duplex: full
ixgbe3 link: up speed: 10000 Mbps duplex: full
# cat hostname.ixgbe1
myhost netmask + broadcast + group ipmp-0 up
# cat hostname.ixgbe3
group ipmp-0 up
# cat hostname.igb0
group ipmp-0 up
# cat hostname.igb1
group ipmp-0 up
