Title: Question about HA setup
Post by: amankalr on March 01, 2022, 03:55:03 am

Is it true that certain VHIDs can failover while others remain active on a given firewall when configured in HA setup using CARP ?

Because the website says this:

OPNsense utilizes the Common Address Redundancy Protocol or CARP for hardware failover. Two or more firewalls can be configured as a failover group. If one interface fails on the primary or the primary goes offline entirely, the secondary becomes active.
