[ovirt-users] CARP Fails on Bond mode=1

As addition: I get the same result using mode=4, only when I use
multiple VLANS on the interface.

>> In mode=1 the active interface sends traffic, but both interfaces accept incoming traffic. Hardware switches send broadcast/multicast/unknown destination MACs to all ports, including the passive interface. So packet sent from the active interface can be received back from the passive interface. FreeBSD CARP just would go mad when it receives its own packets.

>>> I would say that bonding breaks CARP somehow. In example mode=1 can lead to packet duplication, so pfsense can receive it's own packets. Try firewall in pfsense all incomming packets that have the same source MAC address as pfsense.
