I'm using CARP under 3.7 release version on two boxes that aren't firewalls, so
no pfsync involved and CARP configured as described in the FAQ. What I'm seeing
is that the box I've designated as BACKUP always boots with carp0 as INIT and
carp1 and carp2 both come up BACKUP as expected. The other box always boots
with all 3 carp interfaces correctly as MASTER. On the backup box, I can
execute 'ifconfig carp0 up' and the interface correctly transitions to BACKUP.
To prove to myself that this was not a problem with that particular box, I tried
switching the roles making the backup the master and vice versa and the problem
moves to the other box. Here's the output of ifconfig -A on the backup box and
I can supply more info if needed:
