The main goal of the keepalived project is to add a strong & robust keepalive
facility to the
Linux Virtual Server project. This project is written in C with multilayer
TCP/IP stack checks.
Keepalived implements a framework based on three family checks : Layer3, Layer4
& Layer5.
This framework gives the daemon the ability of checking a LVS server pool
states. When one of
the server of the LVS server pool is down, keepalived informs the linux kernel
via a setsockopt
call to remove this server entrie from the LVS topology. In addition keepalived
implements a
VRRPv2 stack to handle director failover. So in short keepalived is a userspace
daemon for LVS
cluster nodes healthchecks and LVS directors failover.
