Hello List, 

I have a HA setup. Everything except state sync works fine. Configuration syncs 
correctly. Carp works correct, if I reboot the master, the slave turns Master 
and later turns back to Backup. 

The only problem I have is that the state does not get synced (right now there 
where some 1100 states on one FW and 35 on the other). 

I see constant traffic in the range between 200 kbit to over 1 mbit on the sync 
interface. 
The sync interfaces is a dedicated interface. 
I can ping each server from the other (and xmlrpc config works). 
I see the pfsync traffic in tcpdump on both servers (lot of traffic from Master 
to Backup, some traffic from Backup to Master, this seems right). 

But it seems the states do not get applied. 

In another remote location we have 2.1.5 installed and it works correctly 
syncing the states. 

Is there anything I missed, I tripple checked the configuration, state sync is 
enabled on Backup, the IPs point to each other, on the backup nothing else but 
state sync is enabled. Outbound NAT seems to be correctly configured, but that 
should not be a problem for the state sync itself. 

I read the pfsense 21draft book and did not find anything related, also there 
is not much trouble shooting for state sync, most of it is carp related which 
works fine in my case. I am not sure how the state sync is happening, who or 
what is syncing? Should there be a deamon running and applying the states or is 
this a flag on an interface which PF should recognize behind the scenes? 

Thanks for help, 
Best 
Ray
