Bill I identified this problem a few days ago when asking about the sizing of state table entries. I have now had time to study the issue over a longer period of time. The site I am working with is pretty busy - they typically have around 10,000 punters on-line during the week: The site

Cacti is a pretty powerful tool, but does need a lot of integration work. Years ago I used to use a tool called 'Whats UP?'. This was a great little tool for getting a snap-shot of what was working, what wasn't etc. This would be pretty useful in conjunction with pfsense's load balancing and

Re: [pfSense Support] Re: CARP preemption

2006-05-06 Thread Peter Curran
It is probably more correct to say that Carp multicasts on all interfaces that have Carp addresses assigned. Just to clarify, as there seems to be some confusion over pfsync and Carp. These are in fact not the same thing: Carp is the mechanism to automatically fail-over from one interface to

I can confirm Scott's words - I was one of the people with the problem. My results where exactly the same as you are seeing (except mine was only on one interface). Carp multicasts stuff on the interface at regualr intervals and expects to see multicasts from the other system coming in. It is
