CARP Firewall Logs on pfsense that should not be there

Hi there,

we do see loads of CARP Logs in the firewall logs that should not be there. Netgate Support said that this must have something to do with the unifi switches attached to it but we do not know how to approach this.

Following Screenshot shows the logs

So, what’s being logged is OK to get blocked but it should not be logged anyway.

Cheers

Appears to be some broadcast traffic.

Sure is, though, nobody understands why this is being logged. In our other offices we do not see that behaviour. It’s the CARP advertisement traffic.
