It doesn't do anything and I assume that it is because the
interface goes down by itself. If I manually up it (via ifconfig carp0 up)
it first goes BACKUP and after a while it goes MASTER. After that
also traffic to that IP works.
I started examining this because the carp0 didn't come up during
boot.
