Connecting To An External Network Using A logical (PACKAGE) IP Address
Hie everyone,
I am currently facing a problem whereby I can not connect to an external network from a package ip address on a HP-UX cluster. Below is the illustration:
Primary Server IP Address : n.n.n.202
Secondary Server IP Address : n.n.n.212
Package IP Address : n.n.n.211
Exterternal IP Address to connect to : x.x.x.1
When I try to connect to the external IP the IP for the Primary Server is the one being recognised instead of that of the package from which the application is running.
Question
Is there a way of overiding the system so that it can use the package ip address to connect to the external network rather than the system using the ip of the primary server upon which the package is running?
Cheers

The address should be in numeric format in the network byte order. Numeric format is the binary value that goes into a
socket address structure.
The binary value is the hex representation of the IPv4/IPv6 address. This binary value resides in the structure for IPv4
address and in the structure for IPv6 address. (See inet(3N) for more details.)
