The use of high-availability in a Networking deployment helps mitigate the impact of individual node failures. In general, you can run neutron-server and neutron-dhcp-agent in an active-active fashion. You can run the neutron-l3-agent service as active/passive, which avoids IP conflicts with respect to gateway IP addresses.

You can run some Networking services in a cluster configuration (Active / Passive or Active / Active for Networking Server only) with Pacemaker.
