I saw a different (from the outdated doc) config on the web and tried it succesfully: virtual_ipaddress { 192.168.16.123/32 brd 192.168.31.255 scope global } And get these extra bits: Feb 20 16:19:56 lvs1 Keepalived_vrrp: VRRP_Instance(VI_1) Transition to MASTER STATE Feb 20 16:19:57 lvs1 Keepalived_vrrp: VRRP_Instance(VI_1) Entering MASTER STATE Feb 20 16:19:57 lvs1 Keepalived_vrrp: VRRP_Instance(VI_1) setting protocol VIPs.
