CARP interface cant find specified interface

[banym]

I added two new carp interfaces on a HA-Cluster.

One virutal IP works as configured. The other one cant be configured on the second Firewall. The error message is: Interface specified for the virtual IP address .... does not exist. Skipping this VIP.

On both sides the interfaces are named the same. I deleted and added them and rebooted the firewalls but had no luck to get the virutal ip syncronized to the second firewall.

If i manually edit the entry on the second firewall I would be able to choose the correct interface but this is of course not peristent. With the next change on the main firewall the error is there again.

Any ideas how I could figure out what difference in the firewalls could be the root. Is the interface name used to identify the correct interface on the second firewall?

You add 2 CARP type IPs or 2 Aliases?

Hi, everything CARP sorry for the missleading naming.

The Firewall is using multiple CARP IPs an WAN an LAN side.

Are the assignments correct?

You are right. There was an offset of 1 to the opt naming.
Since I rename the interfaces I din't knew where you could see the initial name.

Now it works. Thank you!
