### Basic Assumptions for Easy Installation

The following basic configuration assumptions apply for easy installation:

- The servers use private IP addresses 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 for monitoring.
- The private monitoring addresses are assigned to “eth1” interface in both servers.
- All default installation directories are used in the Linux Red Hat installation.
- The HeartBeat link is a simple Ethernet Cross Over cable linking the servers on their respective eth1 interfaces.

Important: If you change this basic configuration, ensure that you know how to modify the configuration files properly for HeartBeat operation.
