>Description:
when an inet6 address is configured on a carp interface, the master works fine, but the backup is constantly switching between master and slave.
It worked fine on FreeBSD 6.0, the problem appeared after upgrading from 6.0 to 6.1
While looking with tcpdump, I can't see IPv6 carp advertisement on FreeBSD 6.1, whereas I can see it with FreeBSD 6.0
>How-To-Repeat:
two box with FreeBSD 6.1 in failover with carp, configure an IPv6 address on the carp interface and you can see the backup switching from master to slave in loop.
