      Hi all, the is a model I need to make

      I know how to apply carp to this configuration but I need to apply load balance as well for the 2 pfSense, these recieve users and gives them internet, that is basically, there is mucho more behind this, like captive portal, php, certificates, vlans, RADIUS etc. Thanks for your time.

        CARP is only for failover, not load-balancing

          You can use CARP for failover but you cannot load balance pfsense servers. You can load balance webservers with pfsense but not pfsense its self.
