      Hello

      I have a strange issue
      2 virtual ipv4 in CARP Failover master is master and slave is slave.
      Failover Working

      1 virtual ipv6 CARP Failover but the 2 pfsense are master.

      Is this normal behavior ?
      Thanks

        No, CARP on IPv6 works the same as IPv4. Only the master should show up as master.

        If the slave is showing master, somehow it is not receiving the IPv6 CARP heartbeat traffic correctly from the master.

          Ok

          But it's receiving the heartbeat in ipv4

          I really have no clue what is going wrong.  :-\

          I have set a dedicated nic for the carp traffic with both ipv4 and ipv6 statuc adresses
