"The master of the address sends out CARP advertisement messages via
multicast using the CARP protocol (IP Protocol 112) on a regular basis,
and the backup hosts listen for this advertisement. If the
advertisements stop, the backup hosts will begin advertising."
I'm afraid CARP will not be routed on some WAN architectures... Because
of the IP Protocol #112 that may not be routed by your ISP and the
Internet segment you're on, and it uses multicast...

You can also take a look on LVS/IPVS...

The software is also available for FreeBSD and works on WAN
architectures. I didn't test it yet but used sucessfully on Lin boxes.
Hope this helps...

You can load balance with CARP, but AFAIK it only works on the local
network segment, i.e. it wont work past a router.
Did you look at the sollution described at the above URL?
The link did not work, it seems to work now though. Good info.
