RE: [pfSense Support] 050.2 CARP won't go Master or Backup
HI Firstly I didn't have time yet to do another update_file.sh so the problem may already be fixed.. but in the interim: After the update_file.sh I did yesterday morning .. I have an intermittent issue which I think is also related.. ng0 goes down, AND stays down, even after reboots. Doing another upgrade(downgrade) via the web interface to 085.6(.tar.gz) fixed the ng0 down problem. Although I could manually ifconfig ng0 up to bring the route up again but after reboot it would go down again. I suspect carp is not coming up because ng0 doesn't come up? Tx all.

Re: [pfSense Support] 050.2 CARP won't go Master or Backup
Only problems I've had with carp recently weren't actually due to carp, but the dhcp daemon. There's a hold down timer somewhere that won't let it come up as primary for 300 or 360 seconds (my bet is there two different timeouts, a 60 second timeout and a 300 second one). So if you're running a highly available DHCP server on your pfSense box, keep this in mind - don't reboot both within about 10 minutes of each other for now. --Bill On 9/27/05, Holger Bauer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a working carp config at home.

HI PPPoe is on WAN .. CARP is on LAN with carp sync on OPT1. OK so you guys are going to laugh at me. I do feel stupid. As a fault finding procedure and just to get connectivity back I halted router2, which is UTP crossed over connected to router 1 on OPT1. So OPT1 (carp sync) is down. (no link since you need both nic up to have link). CARP will NOT come up without link on OPT1. My suggestion in terms of best practice is to have a switch on OPT(sync) when using CARP.

Even tried doing everything with the second box physically turned off. No difference. Any ideas?

It can also be passed the -all flag to update all known files. It's basically a upgrade mechanism for a single file to help the developers help you :) Scott - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

AW: [pfSense Support] 050.2 CARP won't go Master or Backup
ok, I have experienced some strange problems bringing up CARP-Interfaces here as well (quite reproducable but also a bit sporadic). Scott did several changes and he finally came up with something that now is running on my systems without any problems any more (my systems are also syncing via a crossover-cable, no switch in between). Ivan, if you can please crosslink your systems again and do a update_file.sh /etc/inc/interfaces.inc on both system before testing again. To have a switch between two machines is needed if you have more than 2 machines in the cluster but with only two machines it's an additional point of failure if the switch dies or only has powerfailure. Syncing should work with crosslink-cables too. So if you can give it a try and report back we would appreciate it.
