Just an idea, but you might consider giving private ip to the phydev and
using nrpe plugin for nagios so you'll be able to ping them from the inside
and report everything to your external nagios monitor

sounds nice.
I came to somewhat similar. Just ssh to external address and ping both carp
peers (via internal addresses), if there're less than 2 answers, we are in
trouble.
your idea is also good.

ok, let's try this idea...
Your systems have ONE external address, but they can have as many
internal addresses as desired, right?
SO...let's say you have two CARP'd firewalls, FW1 and FW2. They share
external address of x.x.x.x.
FW1: FW2:
Externalx.x.x.xx.x.
RFC1918 addreeses are not routable.
there's no problem for carp peers to ping each other, I just cannot ping
both of them from Internet (where nagios is located)
the problem is to specify each peer's address in nagios config, I do not
want to depend on 10.0.0.2 for cluster1 peer and so on.

That's the root of the problem.
Use IPv6 for the non-carp addresses? RFC 1918? rdr on some ports?
Otherwise, you'll have to invent a hackish and fragile solution...
Simo
well, it's usually not possible.
we use OpenBSD, because it supports "carpdev" option (FreeBSD does not
support it)
most of our carp clusters run on single address. no spare IP space.
we could do ssh and ping carp peer (some trouble with preemption), but we
do not want to stick with certain IP ad

Give each server it's unique IP address.

I would still consider using ifstated to signal to the network monitor the
state of the interface.
An alternative that may be better though is to use SNMP.

probably we do not want to determine that we are carp m
I think ifstated is what you want to use.

Hello!
I'm running OpenBSD with CARP (and because of CARP), 10 servers in total.
Some of them preemt=1, some with preemt=0
I'd like to know that spare CARP server is up and running (and will play it
part when master server die).
questions are
1) how to detect that server is master? any other wa
