Title: OPNsense High Availability setup with PPPoE
Post by: penley on April 09, 2020, 03:59:45 pm

With OPNsense 20.1, is it possible to setup a High Availability with two OPNsense firewalls using PPPoE?
The PPPoE is configured on the WAN interface.

I've been searching through the forums and internet. I've only found this back in 2018:https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=9746.0 (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=9746.0).

Kind regards,
penley

There is a script around at github, you can search for carp and pppoe there, but in my testings it wasn't really stable

Thank you for the quick response. So I guess that means it's not possible at the moment. Do you know or have you seen if this is a feature that will be available in a future release?

Dont think so, maybe one time a customer is willing to sponsor or so. But the current approach isnt stable
