      I understand the basic functionality and that's what I tried to do.
      But as mentioned in my main post, after switching to CARP, the DNSBL Service goes down and I can't get it to work. I already followed other posts which suggested a collision with the pfSense GUI port, since DNSBL Web Service is listening http and https.

      I don't know what else I can do.

        Did you state a unique VHID and a password?

        Something in the system log?

            So:
            I made sure the pfSense GUIs port is different from the one DNSBL Web Server listens to
            I gave the CARP VIP a unique VHID
            I checked the system log but nothing major, the last one was "pfblockerng: saving dnsbl changes". No errors and XMLRPC does successfully synchronize everything

                set the DNSBL Web Server Interface to LAN

                  @juliokele Thanks for the suggestion. I have several VLANs, will DNSBL still function for all of them?

                      It would work with the above described gap in case of a failover.

                        Changing it to LAN did not help, either :(

                        Attached a few images. I just can not seem to find the log files, please see attached images.

                        Changed Web GUI https port of pfSense to 500
                        Set pfBlockerNG DNSBL to CARP with unique settings
                        Made sure subnet is not in use
                        Reloaded DNSBL

                        still no success...
