CARP and IP aliases
I'm about to build my first CARP setup, and before I get too
far into it, I'm hoping to get confirmation that CARP will work
with IP aliases. My current non-CARP gateway has two IPs bound
to the internal interface and many IP addresses bound to the
WAN interface.
All the documentation I've read so far deals with a single
internal address and a single external address. Has anyone set
up a CARP system with multiple IP addresses bound to the
internal and external interfaces?
Thanks,
Aaron

It depends on exactly where the interface is, but CARPed interface
continue to work as normal interfaces (including accepting aliases) and
setting up multiple CARPs allows you to 'share' multiple IP addresses.

That's just what I was looking for. Thanks!
