High availability / Re: Current CARP demotion level -240 on Master and Backup

« on: October 10, 2024, 10:10:10 am »

How can I test the CARP IPs /connection? By pinging them from the Master and Backup?

I verfied that all interfaces are up on both firewalls and all CARP IPs are pingable.

The log shows the message:

carp: demoted by -240 to -240 (pfsync bulk done)

Sync Ips are working fine.

Is it recommended to use the Multicast IP or the Configuration IP for the Sync IP?

High availability / Current CARP demotion level -240 on Master and Backup

Hi,

on both Master and Backup the current CARP demotion level is currently -240. I'm also getting the warning:

CARP has detected a problem and this unit has been demoted to BACKUP status.
Check link status on all interfaces with configured CARP VIPs.

What could be the reason for this problem?
