      We make use of the TFTP package to boot diskless PCs. We also use CARP for failover.

      If we set the boot server to the shared CARP VIP, the PCs will not boot; we have to specify the real IP of the pfsense box, which is sub-optimal for failover.

      Any way around this?

        Gentle bump to see if anyone knows anything about this these days…

        I saw this post, which I think could be relevant:

        It looks like that by modifying inetd I should be able to achieve what I want, but not sure what needs changing.
