• Key Concepts: 
  A virtual IP address (VIP) is a type of IP address used in SAP Landscape Virtualization Management (LVM). It is a virtual IP address that is assigned to a virtual machine (VM) or a physical server in an SAP LVM landscape. The VIP allows the VM or server to be accessed from outside the landscape, and it also provides a way for the VM or server to communicate with other VMs or servers in the landscape. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use a VIP, it must first be assigned to a VM or server. This can be done through the SAP LVM management console. Once the VIP has been assigned, it can be used to access the VM or server from outside the landscape. Additionally, the VIP can be used to communicate with other VMs or servers in the landscape. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When assigning a VIP, make sure that it is unique and not already in use by another VM or server in the landscape. Additionally, make sure that the VIP is not within the same subnet as any other VMs or servers in the landscape.
