2454This is a required setting to initiate
2455.Xr carp 4 .
2456If the virtual host ID doesn't exist yet, it is created and attached to the
2457interface, otherwise configuration of an existing vhid is adjusted.

2464address, then this address is configured to be run under control of the
2465specified vhid.
2466Whenever a last address that refers to a particular vhid is removed from an
2467interface, the vhid is automatically removed from interface and destroyed.
2468Any other configuration parameters for the
2469.Xr carp 4
2470protocol should be supplied along with the
2471.Cm vhid
