URL : http://www.ucarp.org/
License : MIT and BSD
Description : UCARP allows a couple of hosts to share common virtual IP addresses in order

: Strong points of the CARP protocol are: very low overhead, cryptographically
: signed messages, interoperability between different operating systems and no
: need for any dedicated extra network link between redundant hosts.
