Carp Suppression

[Josh Kayse]

I am cross-posting this to -net and -pf because I am not sure where it goes.

I am running 2 carp interfaces on a pair of transparent firewalls
running FreeBSD 5.4.

One of the interfaces is a xl interface and the other is a plip interface.

I am having trouble in that the carp interfaces are not failing over
between the 2 machines.

When I check net.inet.carp.suppress_preempt it returns 1 and I do not
understand why that is.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

If you need any more information, just let me know.

Thanks

Josh
