Hello, I'm running two boxes with a carped-interface facing my LAN. Box A is connected "to the internet" (interface em0) and has a direct link to Box B (Interface em1 on both sides). Both boxes are connected to my LAN-Switch (via Interface em3) where a single workstation is connetcted. I configured OSPF on em1 and em3.
When there is no trouble everything work's fine. ICMP echo request packets are coming in via em0 on Box A, going over the direct link via em1 to Box B (which is carp master) and from there to the LAN. I can debug this via tcpdump an em0 and em1. When I'm switching over the carp interface to Box A (ifconfig -g carp carpdemote 50 on box B) the master/backup states of the carp interfaces are switching as I expect it. In OSPF I can see the new advertising for the LAN. Everything looks good - but there are no changes in the kernel routing table. If I running "sh /etc/netstart carp213" on Box A, the kernel routing table is updated. But I expect that it is updated when the carp-state changes!? Any hints? Regards, Falk
