Thanks!

Indeed I did have:

${fwcmd} 140 allow all from $CARP-PEER_physical_interface to any via $local_external_interface

But it alone doesn't seem to be enough, sometimes it work but sometimes it doesn't. with tcpdump, sometimes I can't see the VRRPv2 advertisement.

So now i added:

${fwcmd} 150 allow all from any to 224.0.0.18 vi $local_external_interface

now it seem to be working perfect.
