Agent function

This agent has its operations attribute permanently set to None.

Monitor 

Checks the status of the active interface. If the agent detects a failure, it tries to migrate the IP addresses that are configured on that interface. If possible, it tries to migrate the addresses to the next available interface that is configured in the Device attribute. 

Note   For AIX, systems do not respond to broadcast pings by default. You must run "no -o bcastping=1" to enable response to broadcast pings.
