Title: HA PROBLEM WITH Virtual IP
Post by: andresmeliann on January 17, 2017, 09:04:59 pm

Hello everybody, Im testing OPNsense 16.7-amd64 , and Im pretty confortable with its perfonmance, the Issue if when I try to configure HA with CARP, The testing scenario is almost identical to that is into the documentation. I have a Wan Interface, 2 Lan Interface and a HA syn Interface, I configure virtual IP into the Primary Firewall for LAns Interface and Wan Interface and setup the HA and apparently it works, because it see the other firewall and reply the configuration, the issue is that into the dashbord I see that the Virtual IP into the secondary Firewall is see in the case of the WAN into the HA interface and cross the Virtula IPs of the two LAN, for that it replicates the rules into the wrong interfaces and HA dont work OK, someone have this same problem and knows how to solve it.

Hi,
when I first setup my HA-Cluster, I experienced the same issue. You have to create the Interfaces on both sides of the cluster in exactly the same order. Otherwise your OPTx-assignement in your xml-config will be completely messed up. I was abe to fix it, by manually editing the backup-nodes xml-config and replacing the OPTs with their correct number and name and then restoring the config. After that it worked like a charme.
