I've spent quite some time to get it working... but I don't = succeed...the carp-address will never ping nor route. What do I do ? Basic IPv6 : machine1: sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=3D1 ifconfig bge0 inet6 2001:a:b:c::2/64 route -n add -inet6 default 2001:a:b:c::fffe machine2: sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=3D1 ifconfig bge0 inet6 2001:a:b:c::3/64 route -n add -inet6 default 2001:a:b:c::fffe Both addresses are pingable, and when I use either of=20 them on other machines as gateway, they route fine. So now carp : machine1: ifconfig carp1 create ifconfig carp1 vhid 30 pass mekmitasdigoat=20 ifconfig carp1 inet6 2001:a:b:c::1/64 machine2: ifconfig carp1 create ifconfig carp1 vhid 30 advskew 100 pass mekmitasdigoat=20 ifconfig carp1 inet6 2001:a:b:c::1/64 carp goes succesfully to master on one machine, and to backup on = another. However..... i can't ping the virtual address 2001:a:b:c::1 from either = machine1 or machine2. Nor can other PC's ping it or use it as a gateway. Am i forgetting something ? IPv4 carp works as a charm on these machines.... Regards, Wouter de Jong
