That's what I took from
https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Configuring_pfSense_Hardware_Redundancy_%28CARP%29.
Two WAN IP, two LAN IP, and two more for sync.

move them around the cluster trumps that. Downtime would be pretty much only
during upgrades, which we could do during the day with the failover.

But (per the above) we would have two WAN IPs?
