On 25.1.3 CARP interface dialog: advskew field missing

[patient0]

While checking CARP settings in responds to a CARP thread here I realized that the field 'advskew' is missing (with 'advanced mode' enabled).

To verify I setup a pristine 25.1 with the ISO image 'OPNsense-25.1-dvd-amd64.iso', the setting is visible. Update to latest 25.1.3 and it's gone.

Can anyone verify that, or is it only me?

yes can confirm, its gone with 25.1.3 (even with advanced on) which is weird, because its still here in the source code?

Its just hidden in the browser with "display: none" due to a small regression.

Thanks a lot, worked excellent.

Never quite understood why that setting is 'behind' the advanced mode, for half of all the interfaces - all interfaces on one instance - I gotta enter a value in that field.

But nevermind, thank a lot for the quick reply!

could you maybe elaborate? why would I need to add a skew? on the secondary the skew is automatically set (+100) via the HA config sync feature...?

Mmmh, I see. That never crossed my mind, I always set it manually *slaps forehead*.
