Why keepalived doesn't failover after network interface goes down?
Issue
While testing failover of keepalived configuration with track_interface option:
track_interface {
eth0 weight 3
}
If we disable network interface via
# ifdown eth0
We can see, that failover doesn't happen even though tracked interface is down.
