CARP cannot have VIPs off-subnet, proxy ARP can and in some circumstances is necessary. > I have quite a few networks using fibre metro ethernet, and Embarq (formerly > sprint) loves to provide transport networks, and public networks. > Basically giving you 1.2.3.0/29 for transport (.1 is gateway, .2-.6 usable > for firewalls etc.), then assigns you 6.5.4.0/27 for WAN/Public access They should be routing the /27 to a CARP IP on your /29. Then you use Other type VIPs for the /27. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
