Description
Greetings,
Today when working with CARP with several links we have a problem where the master detects the down of only 1 link for some reason ends up playing for the pfsense master backup.
By analyzing, I found that by enabling the
sysctl net.inet.carp.preempt = 0
The carp behaves as expected only by leaving the down link backup and not altering pfsense for backup.
Could it be possible to add a check box so that it could leave value 0 after rebooting

Without preempt, you'll get systems with a mix of MASTER/BACKUP status or nothing will trigger a failover. That isn't something we want to encourage.
