What is keep alived

keepalived is a framework for both load balancing and high availability that implements VRRP. This is a protocol that you see on some routers and has been implemented in keepalived. It creates a Virtual IP (or VIP, or floating IP) that acts as a gateway to route traffic to all participating hosts. This VIP that can provide a high availability setup and fail over to another host in the event that one is down.
