# Utility Services
* Table of Contents
{:toc}
# Overview
Variety of convenience services for carrying out common networking changes.
The following services are provided as utilities:
* UCARP
* IP Forward
* Default Routing
* Default Muticast Routing
* Static Routing
* SSH
* DHCP
* DHCP Client
* FTP
* HTTP
* PCAP
* RADVD
* ATD
## Installation
To install the functionality of the previously metioned services you can run the following command:
```shell
sudo apt-get install isc-dhcp-server apache2 libpcap-dev radvd at
```
## UCARP
UCARP allows a couple of hosts to share common virtual IP addresses in order to provide automatic failover. It is a portable userland implementation of the secure and patent-free Common Address Redundancy Protocol (CARP, OpenBSD's alternative to the patents-bloated VRRP).
Strong points of the CARP protocol are: very low overhead, cryptographically signed messages, interoperability between different operating systems and no need for any dedicated extra network link between redundant hosts.
### Installation
```shell
sudo apt-get install ucarp
```
