CLUSTERIP for router?

0 votes
156 views

Is it possible to use the iptables CLUSTERIP target in a two node router pair?

My testing experience shows that it works perfectly for connections to the hosts but packets addressed to the multicast MAC address with other IP destination addresses will not be picked up and forwarded.

I tried a CLUSTERIP target rule in the PREROUTING chain of the nat table but that has no effect.

The goal would be to load balance outgoing traffic between the uplinks connected to the routers.

Is that even possible?

I have a stringent requirement to configure a router at run time to change the route of data for set of IPs automatically not human intervention. And if it is possible then how much time it will take since there is a time constraint for the Data plane.
