Administering IPMP In Oracle Solaris 11

What's New With IPMP In Solaris 11

The following features differentiate the current IPMP implementation from the previous implementation:
     ■ An IPMP group is represented as an IPMP IP interface.

     ■ The system becomes responsible for the distribution of data addresses among underlying active interfaces.

     ■ The ipmpstat tool is introduced as the principal tool to obtain information about IPMP groups.

     ■ The IPMP interface can be assigned a customized name to identify the IPMP group more easily within your network setup.

Following brief content will show you how to configure an active-standby IPMP group and IPMP group Maintenance.

Configure an active-standby IPMP group

Physical device information:

Create IP interface:

Create an IPMP interface by ipadm command:

My ipmp1 group consists of three interfaces:net2、net3 and net4,ipmp0 consists of two interfaces:net0 and net1.

Add underlying IP interfaces to ipmp1:

Add underlying IP interfaces to ipmp0:

Add data addresses to the IPMP1 interface:

Add data addresses to the IPMP0 interface:

Add test addresses on the underlying interfaces:

Configure one of the underlying interfaces as a standby interface:

Here,i configured net3 as a standby interface in ipmp1 group and net1 as a standby interface in ipmp0 group.finally,use ipmpstat command with g option to view IPMP group information.

Check your configuration by ipadm command with show-ifprop option:

View your configuration by ifconfig command:

Monitoring IPMPInformation

The following procedures use the ipmpstat command, enabling you to monitor different aspects of IPMP groups on the system.This command is very easy to use.

Display the IPMP group information.

Display the IPMP address information.

Display the IPMP interface information.

Display the IPMPprobe targets.

Display the information about ongoing probes.

Maintaining IPMPGroups

Removing an Interface From a Group.

Delete IPMP Group.

After that,use ipmpstat command again.
