[Pacemaker] IP Range Failover with IPaddr2 and clone / globally-unique="true"

FYI,


The solution turned out to be related to IPTABLES rules that were added
using this approach.
By adding a custom IPTables "CLUSTERIP" chain, the firewall started
letting everything through :)

Unfortunately, it seems that this approach is somewhat experimental and
not very stable, so while I finally found my solution, I will be going
back to using individual IPaddr2 Primitives for the time being.

Thanks,

Mike
