      hi,

      dpinger sets gateway status to offline.

      seems dpinger always binds to the ip address configured on the interface
      if dpinger would use the virtual carp ip which runs on that interface gateway should be reachable.

      Here's a sample log entry:

      Jan 5 10:20:37 dpinger    send_interval 500ms loss_interval 2000ms time_period 60000ms report_interval 0ms
                                  data_len 256 alert_interval 1000ms latency_alarm 500ms loss_alarm 20%
                                  dest_addr 192.168.55.121 bind_addr 172.16.6.1 identifier "TESTGATEWAY"

      in this example the virtual ip of the interface is 192.168.55.1 - dpinger binds to 172.16.6.1 and sends with this src.

      is there a way to bind dpinger to the virtual IP ?
