There are a lot of vlans, with high vlan IDs. We have, for example: dot1q vlan id: 1530 Iface igb0 vlan1530 carp1530 vhid 10 What do you think in change the carp code to support vhid above 255 (just to align with vlanid, carp vlan name)? I think that it can ease the troubleshooting, standardization and documentation (in this scenario). It's the last piece of the complete 'id' alignment. But I don't know the impact of this change in the source codes (and related, like the ifconfig). What do you think? Regards, Rafael
