Thank you for your explaination.
I have another question.

Is the arp request broadcasted and reached every machine in the network ?
Isn't there any device, switching hub for example, that intercept that
request ?
I'm testing HA in an environment where two directors are under a switching
hub.
The arp table of the router seems to be never updated after IP takeover take
place.
(Here I didn't do send_arp)
I couldn't connect to the VIP for more than an hour.
Even though sending arp replies can be a solution, I wonder why the arp
table
didn't updated for so long a time.
I suspected the switching hub to be the cause of this problem, but I have no
idea.
