CARP maintenance mode via command line / API

[vielhak]

Hi there,

is there a way to enter/leave the carp maintenance mode via command line or API? I would like to automate some things and did not find anything in the docs or the forum.

best regards,
Torsten

Hi,

there is a way via CLI:

Code Select Expand

$ configctl interface carp_set_status maintenance

This toggles the maintenance mode on / off, depending on the previous state.

If you want to find out more about the options of this command, look at /usr/local/opnsense/scripts/interfaces/carp_set_status.php .

Best regards,
Ian
