Hello All,

I am, once again having trouble understanding CARP/pf. It is a shame
this is not covered in Building Firewalls with OpenBSD and PF, by J.A.
or in Absolute OpenBSD, they both cover PF very well, but not CARP.

Anyway, I have a /etc/pf.conf file which was originally for a single
firewall, which worked for a normal layout with two interfaces. I am now
attempting to do the following:

               switch
                 |
       +---------+----------+
       |                    |
    +---------------------------+
    | CARP0 10.10.5.1/24        |
    +---------------------------+
       |                    |
fxp0: 10.10.3.31/24      fxp0: 10.10.3.32/24
     obsd0                obsd1
sis0: 83.146.42.163/28   sis0: 83.146.42.164/28
       |                    |
    +---------------------------+
    | CARP1 83.146.42.165/24    |
    +---------------------------+
       |                    |
       +---------+----------+   
                 |
              switch

The two boxes have two interfaces, although most documentation suggests
using a third interface with cross over, which I don't currently have.

My existing firewall script allows access to 83.146.42.164 and
83.146.42.165, should I be treating incoming packets as packets for
83.146.42.163/4, or 83.146.42.165?

Is it possible to provide two CARP interfaces over the fxp0 like I have,
and if I do, will it work as intended?

Needless to say, what I am trying to has not worked.
