Linux Test setup, it has been tested on

  • Debian 8
  • Apache 2.4
  • Hostname used for the test: myLVS-LinuxClient




System settings to configure the loop back adapter

To make the change permanent you may edit /etc/sysctl.conf and add:

net.ipv4.conf.eth0.arp_ignore = 1
net.ipv4.conf.eth0.arp_announce = 2
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_ignore = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_announce = 2


To make it apllied immediatly you can set:

root@myLVS-LinuxClient:~# echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/arp_ignore
root@myLVS-LinuxClient:~# echo "2" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/arp_announce
root@myLVS-LinuxClient:~# echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_ignore
root@myLVS-LinuxClient:~# echo "2" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_announce


Add to /etc/rc.local to automatic load the loop back adapter:

/sbin/ifconfig lo:0 192.168.2.220 -arp netmask 255.255.255.255 up

ifconfig should look like:

root@myLVS-LinuxClient:~# ifconfig
eth0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 08:00:27:89:f3:8d
         inet addr:192.168.2.222  Bcast:255.255.255.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

Testing the loop back adapter


Switch off the first (Windows) client to make Linux as the only web server



The new myLVS overview should now show the disabled (Windows) server marked with a red cross:


Use a network client and open the URL http://192.168.2.220, we should now see the result of web02 (because web01 is off)
There should be the Linux/Debian default web page
