The question was: "does TruCluster 1.6 support a NetRAIN set as a monitored
interface?"

The answer is yes. TruCluster 1.6 does support it, as is stated in the
release notes where Bill Kirk directed me. In table 1-1 it literaly says:

"Support redundant array of independent network adapters (NetRAIN) devices
as the cluster interconnect for TruCluster Available Server Software and as
the monitored client network interfaces for both TruCluster Available Server
Software and TruCluster Production Server Software."

Also, according to Derk Tegeler "only problem is if booted on a dead link,
no failover will take place".

Thanks to Bill Kirk, Derk Tegeler and Cyrill Timmermans for their answers.
