Hyper-v operability
-
I know this might be tricky as free-bsd is not supported by hyperv etc but
i have got everything working except carp and i am at a stage where i will dump hyperv to have this feature. I can sync configs but the vips simply will not get past init. I have read that mac spoofing in hyperv network configuration does the trick but alas not for me has any one got this working cause i just get ifa_add_loopback_route: insertion failed ?

Problem is hyper-v by default won't allow multiple MAC addresses on the same device. I'm not sure if there is an option to disable that, probably best searching on that and/or asking on a hyper-v forum, though maybe someone here knows the answer.

from http://blogs.technet.com/b/jhoward/archive/2009/05/21/new-in-hyper-v-windows-server-2008-r2-part-2-mac-spoofing.aspx
When the checkbox is checked (i.e. the port is in “less secure” mode):
1.The virtual machine can send and receive traffic using any MAC address
2.The virtual machine receives flooded unicast packets
3.Learning is enabled on the switch port so that multiple MAC addresses can be learnt on that port. No pre-population of the routing table is performed and MAC addresses for a port are learnt as traffic passes through the switch.
4.Virtual machines can override their MAC address
so this may no longer be the case you suggest?

That's the setting I was thinking of, CARP should work after enabling that. Though can't say I've tried it, others appear to have (Google hyperv CARP).

carp works fine in v1.2.3 not v2.0 rc2 going to retry …
