} I was also wondering if anyone is working on kernel implementation of CARP.

     Personally, I think we should do something like VRRP, which is
standards compliant, instead of using NIH stuff that will have limited
compatibility.

} Example, lets rename iwi0 to wlan0:
} 
} # ifconfig -l
} iwi0 lan0 pfsync0 pflog0 lo0 gif0 disc0
} 
} # ifconfig iwi0 name wlan0
} # ifconfig -l
} wlan0 lan0 pfsync0 pflog0 lo0 gif0 disc0
