CARP sends advertisements using multicast by default, but can be configured to use unicast advertisements to a specific peer via the peer and peer6 parameters.

Why is this necessary ? https://agora.nasqueron.org/Protocol_CARP#Peer

Steps :

• 1. Add the parameter "peer" manually
• 2. Verify CARP peer communication
• 3. Automate the peer configuration with Salt
  • a.Add in Netbox the notion of peer
  • b.Adapt the CARP functions to obtain the value of the peer parameter (D2790) and then update the pillar nodes.sls (D4008)
  • c.Adapt the script nodes.py to read the CARP configuration with the parameter peer (D4009)
  • d.Update the state Salt (D4010)
• 4. Verify CARP peer communication
