Greetings list,
Does anyone know if pfSense includes support for failover between two LAN
interfaces?
For example, one can provide high availability using CARP to create a virtual
router IP failing over between 2 pfSense boxes, but that's not going to solve
the problem of a switch dying. It'd be useful to be able to connect 2
interfaces from each box to the LAN (one to each switch), then configure them
using spanning tree protocol (or one of the derivatives).
If it's not currently included, are there plans to do so, and/or what sort of
financial incentive would encourage development on that front? :-)
Regards,
Chris
Chris,
There's been a call on the site for awhile for some hardware that
support STP. I don't know if that call is still valid or if they got
hardware in. I suspect that you'd want to consider a bounty project or
get in touch with BSDPerimeter and put together a formal quote. I hope
you choose to pursue this, it'd be a nice feature to have.
