Recently (read, < 3 months ago) I was experimenting with IPv6 and CARP on 8.x boxes and that crashed them both. I posted a thread on -net and, sadly, never got a single reply. Has anyone else run into problems when using IPv6 + CARP ? I plan to hold a presentation at work on IP6 and why we should start using it, however I cannot promote the use of IP6 without redundancy between firewalls like we currently do with CARP + pfsync. I can, of course, post additional information as required.
