-Yeah, I waited long enough, and in the meantime this came up in /var/log/messages: Aug 14 17:40:09 left /bsd: carp7: state transition: MASTER -> INIT Aug 14 17:40:30 left /bsd: carp7: state transition: INIT -> BACKUP Aug 14 17:41:30 left /bsd: carp7: state transition: BACKUP -> MASTER By the way, here is some output from sysctl:$ sysctl net.inet.carpnet.inet.carp.allow=1net.inet.carp.preempt=1 net.inet.carp.log=7 -I don't actually see anything else from carp in /var/log/messages other than these transitions, even though net.inet.carp.log=7 -Just to clarify, when I do tcpdump without filtering, there is a lot of traffic entering and exiting, but nothing carp-related. I am not entirely sure what model the switch is since it is in Ireland and I'm in the U.S. - but it shouldn't really matter that much since I am trying to capture outgoing traffic from the host itself, or should it?
