Example:

IP's of 10.0.0.1 through 10.0.0.5

Physical machines assigned 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.5

Addresses 10.0.0.2,3, and 4 will be added as CARP addresses, but what about
1 and 5, are they entered in as CARP address as well?

No, those are interface addresses. Each firewall has an interface
address, plus the CARP IPs that you can use for redundant services.

Thank you, that's what I was wondering about.

So working with the previous example, assume that the single router is using .1 with AON directing traffic out via all the available IP's.

If I was to implement a fail over and put a machine on .5, would I still be able to use that address for AON, and if so, does the other install handle the traffic that would be sent out over the failed box, or are the only usable IP's the CARP addresses?
