Hello,
Is it possible to use a serial cable to "heartbeat" two openbsd
firewalls together using CARP rather than the third ethernet
connection? I realize that quite a bit of information probably passes
along that path with states and the like and that a serial connection
may not be able to keep up... but I was curious. What I had wanted to
do was setup a DMZ type situation using a soekris box with three
ethernet connection and use the serial connection as the "heartbeat."
Thanks,
Brandon
