CARP hash persistence

Hello,

 

 

With source IP persistence using CARP, if a member leaves or joins a pool does the indexing to other members of the pool remain the same? In other words, is persistence maintained to those original members?

 

 

Thanks… Peter

  • One advantage of CARP is that only clients hashed to a downed member are affected when that member goes down.
