Yes. Sockets currently don't migrate, so a socket can continue to use 
the interface to which it was bind()'d. The process can migrate, because 
it transparently continues to use the socket on the old node, as if it 
were local.

If you want to set up a scalable, highly available server, it would be 
better for the socket to listen on the CVIP (see HA-LVS) rather than any 
NICs physical IP address.
