Hi List,

I do not get carp on vlan on trunk working. Hopefully someone can point
me in the right direction.

OS: OpenBSD 4.2 GENERIC.MP#252 i386

On the "External" side (here carp works)

em0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        lladdr 00:15:17:25:ba:3c
        media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT full-duplex)
        status: active
        inet 172.16.254.1 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast 172.16.254.15
carp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        lladdr 00:00:5e:00:01:01
        carp: MASTER carpdev em0 vhid 1 advbase 1 advskew 0
        groups: carp egress
        inet 172.16.128.68 netmask 0xfffffff8 broadcast 172.16.128.71


Connected to the same switch as below in a seperate untagged vlan.




On the "DMZ" side, carp does not work. A short description:

Firewall 1 is connected with two UTP cables to port 19 and 20 to a Dell
PowerConnect 6224 switch, both switchports are aggregated (LAG 1) and in
"trunk" mode (this means, in contrast to BSD, that I can add the port to
more than 1 vlan on the switch, the VLAN tag created on the firewall
tells the switch for which vlan the packet is meant).

Firewall 2 is connected with two UTP cables to port 17 and 18 to the
same Dell PowerConnect 6224 switch, both switchports are aggregated (LAG
2) and are in "trunk" mode.

Since CARP advertising is multicast (to 224.0.0.18), I also played with
some multicast settings on the switch to no succes (on request I'll
write some more details about this).

When the switchports are in Dell's Trunk mode, both carp1 interfaces
have status BACKUP. When I turn off the Trunk mode they both go to MASTER.

I can ping the vlan3 IP addresses from both hosts. tcpdump also shows me
carp advertisement packets, but I don't think they arrive at the
destination (dunno really how to read those). The working carp setup on
the External side also show RSTP packets; I don't see them on the DMZ side.


tcpdump output firewall 1:

This is my config for the "DMZ" side where I would like to use vlans:
