Linux "HSRP"

[Fabio Massimo Di Nitto <f.dinitto@seabone.net>]

HI all,
	I've a problem that maybe someone can help me to solve.

This is my network situation:

        --------        --------
        | box1 |        | box2 |
        --------        --------
            |_______________|
                    |
               ----------  
               | pix fw |
               ----------

the main problem is that pix firewalls (cisco) are able to "talk" rip
but not to setup a default route with rip. Both the boxes are linux
(debian) with zebra on them working very fine :=)
Now the only solution i found to solve the problem is to put a default
static route on the pix but in this way i loose redundacy.
I would like to know if it's possible to setup a virtual shared ip
address between the 2 linux boxes (not load balancing) to ensure
redundancy.
That's mean that if a linux box is down the other is working with the
same virtual ip to permit the pix to work.

Thanks in advice.
Fabio
