To clarify this a bit better. You speak BGP to your ISP from each
pfSense node and generally use CARP as the router address on the
internal side. You still need to exchange routes between both pfSense
nodes. The moment CARP fails over you drop your BGP session anyhow, so
both pfSense nodes need the routing tables (Unless you use default only).
Uh...
https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/OpenBGPD_package
says it better than I can. Note that there have been a ton of bug-fixes
relating to "set nexthop" and CARP in the last year or so, which don't
appear to have made it into the FreeBSD port yet.
I run a pair of BGP routers using CARP to an upstream peer who only
wants to configure a single IP address and a single session. Works OK
in practice under OpenBSD, not sure how well the pfSense package
(FreeBSD port) handles it.
