I'm trying to setup CARP for my gateway.  Both my gateways have 6 interfaces
   - one for uplink to ISP
   - one for CARP/pfsync
   - four that are trunked and then have vlans running on top of

My current setup looks some like this:


   hme0  \
   hme1   \              /- vlan0
           --- trunk0 ----- vlan1
   hme2   /              \- valn2
   hme3  /


In order to introduce CARP, which of the following setup's should I be looking into?


   hme0 --- carp0 \
   hme1 --- carp1  \              /- vlan0
                    --- trunk0 ----- vlan1
   hme2 --- carp2  /              \- valn2
   hme3 --- carp3 /


OR

   hme0  \
   hme1   \                         /- vlan0
           --- trunk0 --- carp0 ------ vlan1
   hme2   /                         \- valn2
   hme3  /


OR

   hme0  \
   hme1   \              /- vlan0 --- carp0
           --- trunk0 ----- vlan1 --- carp1
   hme2   /              \- valn2 --- carp2
   hme3  /



The first of these choices makes the most sense to me, because it keeps CARP close to the physical interface, but netstart has a comment in it saying that trunk needs to come up first...

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Kent
