I am currently trying to configure HAProxy to route between two servers using a virtual IP.
For testing I created two instances, 172.16.4.130 and 172.16.4.131. I am then creating a virtual IP address of 172.16.4.99, using keepalived which will be bridging the two servers. Both of these servers are running apache2, which is hosting a simple index.html landing page for testing. All of the above is running.
When I go to 172.16.4.99, the page does not load, nor am I redirected to either one of the index.html pages. I can however, ping this IP address. I feel like this is a simple configuration issue, and since I am not very experienced with HAproxy, I would like some assistance. Below are my haproxy.cfg files, as well as keepalived.
