Hi, I am trying to set up my firewalls with carp. I thought everything was working fine, one was set as Master and one as Backup, I then rebooted the Master and the Backup changed to Master as expected, however when the one that was rebooted came back online, it set its self back to Master, but the other box also stayed as Master, so they were running as Master/Master. I ran ifconfig -g carp and the one I wanted to be master was set to 1, and the one I wanted to be slave was set as 10 (which I changed manually to 50) but they both stayed as Master?!
On both machines, I have allowed carp and pfsync between both firewalls: pass on $ExtIf inet proto carp keep state label "Pass Carp" pass quick on { bge1 } proto pfsync keep state (no-sync) Any ideas why they were both trying to be master?
