We need a lot more information about the setup there. Exactly what

version/build is in use, hardware involved, etc.


There are many people using CARP on 2.0 in production without issues, so

there isn't a general issue there that we're aware of.


If you could still get to the console that would rule out an OS panic at

least, but seeing the system logs from that point would be critical in

figuring out what is happening.


The output of ifconfig -a at a minimum would be needed, you can

partially obscure the IPs if you wish but it would help to see the last

two octets and the subnet masks to make sure things are right there.

Here is the requested information I currently have. I believe the logs were 
lost when I reset the box units. I am using nanobsd build. Unless they are 
tucked somewhere else.  (See attached file)  Router 2 is identical hardware 
 with addresses as PUB.SUB1.176.190 & PRI.SUB.XXX.252
