Hello,
I have a problem with my opnsense setup.
I have 2 firewalls in vmware virtualization and I want to have them in HA (CARP + XMLRPC sync).
My setup:
FW1:
- WAN IF - some public IPs
- LAN IF - 10.31.0.0/24
- PFSYNC IF (in same PVLAN as LAN IF but different network) - 10.31.2.0/24
FW1:
- WAN IF - some public IPs
- LAN IF - 10.31.0.0/24
- PFSYNC IF (in same PVLAN as LAN IF but different network) - 10.31.2.0/24
I have firewall setup on this interface like:
PASS IPv4 * 10.31.2.0/24 * * * * *
PASS IPv4 CARP * * * * * *
XMLRPC sync works, states sync looks working too (almost same number of states in dashboard even if one firewall has no traffic, there's around 2k states like at master)
but here's problem with CARP IPs - both firewalls switches to master and I can't communicate through CARP IPs and the only thing I have in log is "carp: 1@em1: BACKUP -> MASTER (master timed out)" after disable -> enable CARP in Virtual IP section.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks for any help
