Why not CARP ?

Posted by: Anonymous Coward on May 26, 2005 03:14 AM
It doesn't have any license/patent problems associated with it and works better.

For example:
<a href="http://www.ucarp.org/" title="ucarp.org">http://www.ucarp.org/</a ucarp.org>

Better is ofcourse if you use OpenBSD (the people who created CARP) for your router to the outside-world, because I wouldn't be surprised if it's a firewall to... as a firewall, OpenBSD supports replication of firewall-state, you can even load-balance those machines...
