I two linux hypervisors (CentOS) with each a freebsd VM with carp setup. The VRRP part works fine, switching backup <-> master works as expected. However the VIP on the master it does not seem to work.
I have been trying to get it to work for a longer time now, I've read many forum posts and tried many settings and suggestions I could find, and just now I figured out that if I use arping on the master freebsd VM with the VIP as source address to somewhere, gateway, broadcast address e.g. in the network, then it works, until I stop arping then it lingers for about ten seconds max and it will cease to work again.
I'm looking forward for suggestions to try and or check.
Many thanks in advance.
