Title: CARP WAN VIP not reachable
Post by: liceo on December 08, 2023, 04:57:21 PM
Hi all

I setup again a new HA cluster running on two Hyper-V boxes. I did the HA setup same as my other installations but this time i cannot reach the CARP VIP from the WAN side. It's a pretty standard setup at follows:


What does NOT work now:



I did recreate all the VIPs, recreate the outbound NAT rule, rebooted several times, checked the Firewall logs,  checked the TCPDump (not one package to the WAN VIP..).

Any ideas??

Many thanks!

I have exactly the same problem. I have to give the physical interfaces the required IP address, then the OPNsense works. Of course I no longer have a backup for that.

I can't see any traffic on the VIP's anywhere. How can you narrow down this error?

[mention]danbet [/mention] Do you also run OPNsense on Hyper-V?

I was able to solve it! I had to recreate the virtual switch on Hyper-V servers without SR-IOV enabled.

No, with VMware ESXi.

Ah, ok. But may you also try disable SR-IOV..

I have no such attitude. I can only choose SR-IOV passthrough as the network interface, but I chose E1000.

I'm seeing something similar on the 'inside' VIP but only for a Sonoff door sensor. If I configure the Sonoff unit to use the OPNSense physical IP of one of the units the Sonoff sensor starts working. I'm running OPNSense on Proxmox. What's really weird is only the Sonoff units are affected. I'll keep digging.

I find the solution for VMware ESXi: I had to enable the promiscuous mode for all the interfaces. For this I created port groups to use only for the VM's with OPNsense.
