>From 'man ifconfig' - Looks like your vhid must be from 1 to 255, so 801 is probably what's breaking it. The following parameters are specific to carp(4) interfaces: advbase seconds Specifies the base of the advertisement interval in seconds. The acceptable values are 1 to 255. The default value is 1. advskew interval Specifies the skew to add to the base advertisement interval to make one host advertise slower than another host. It is speci- fied in 1/256 of seconds. The acceptable values are 1 to 254. The default value is 0. pass phrase Set the authentication key to phrase. vhid n Set the virtual host ID. This is a required setting. Acceptable values are 1 to 255.
