      Hello,

      I am setting up a two member CARP cluster, and my ISP has asked me to enable OSPF.

      Does Quagga work reliably with CARP?  Is the below configuration necessary?

      I'm not too familiar with OSPF, would any other configuration be necessary?

        in a use case like that, most likely yes you need that. Probably the most common usage case is strictly with OpenVPN, in which case you don't need that.

          Hi,

          perhaps this is nearby also my problem…

          I want use Quagga for internal WAN failover with OpenVPN for local WLAN bridge between 2 buildings as mentioned here several times with nice tutorials/howtos.

          Problem: when Quagga is running my master firewall can't accept virtual CARP IPs and NAT/route them to the internal server :(

          Since I tried to "Disable Redistribution" to my public network Quagga disabled itself:
          Feb 22 15:05:59 ospfd[14924]: ASBR[Status:2]: Already ASBR
          Feb 22 15:05:59 ospfd[14924]: ASBR[Status:2]: Update
          Feb 22 15:05:59 ospfd[14924]: ASBR[Status:1]: Update
          Feb 22 15:05:59 zebra[14603]: Zebra 0.99.21 starting: vty@2601

          And aunt google cannot say annything to it…
          The only thing I found out that ASBR ist the "autonomous system boundary router" and these messages cames normally only when ospfd is running multiple times.
          But that is not the case and all OSPF nodes have different router ids as before, too.

          Perhaps someone has a good idea onto this problem (running pfsense 2.0.1 beta version from Sunday).

          Bests

          Reiner
