Ho, here it is. Lovelly. Thanks. I now can try to work with it :).

OK. I can't do the test again (it's production time). This morning, I wanted to
test the vrrp part of my LVS. The interfaces are mounted by the RedHat startup
scripts. As far as I know, it is using ifconfig.
I just made a 'ifconfig eth1 down'. In the ifconfig point of view, the
interfaces were down. In the iproute point of view (ip addr), the IPs were UP.
In the network point of view, the sites were unreachable. The salve didn't see
anything (so, probably, the vrrp packets were already gone out.
That turned me sad. Even if it is probably not iproute related, that was a
good reason to troll.

I think that Bert and probably other iproute developers are focusing hard on
the advanced functions iproute is made for, forgetting that iproute should
become fully integrated in the linux distributions, even for simple tasks. So,
scriptability, a littele manpage and some very simple examples would help, with
a set of sysV startup scripts to replace the existing ones.

I was talking about opensource product :). Well, thank you for your help. I
understand well the way iproute is developed, just be carefull when you
advocate it, some old unix/linux bofhs could be irritable :).

I found a developer who filled a FS with misplaced misconfigured huge log
files. This is as good as a shower. 'feel better now.
