 Technote (FAQ)
 
Question
You must remove extra routes created by configuring a cluster address on a network interface card or loopback adapter on versions AIX® 5.1 and 5.2
 
Answer
On AIX versions 5.1 and 5.2, you must remove extra routes created by configuring a cluster address on a network interface card or loopback adapter on the Load Balancer machine using the ifconfig command.

To see if a route was created:


1. Issue netstat -nr after the ifconfig command.


2. Search for the cluster address.


3. Remove the extra routes using the route delete command.

Refer to the appropriate AIX 5.1 documentation for information regarding the ifconfig, netstat and route command syntax.
