Description

I have a working 2 FW CARP setup with pfSense 2.2 and a /28 subnet of available ip addresses.

The Virtual IP Aliases are not syncing to the backup firewall when additions or changes are made.
In the High Availability Section, "Synchronize Virtual IPs" is checked.

Contrary to what I have read about similar issue, adding and editing other rules does not add or update the virtual IPs on the backup.
Performing a reboot on the Primary and Backup also does not update the backup Virtual IPs.

Manually adding the Virtual IPs to the backup works fine and are retained through reboots and other additions and updates.

The major concern is when you later add an IP Alias and forget to you also have to add it to the backup you will have issues in failover mode.

I posted this issue in the forums but have not received any feedback:
