It works no problem on partitions. I’ve been running it for some time without 
any issues on partitions between 2 sites on different L3 networks, sometimes 
under heavy load.

                local /dev/da0p3
                remote 10.x.x.85
        }
        on OSL2EXPORT1 {
                local /dev/da0p3
                remote 10.x.y.30
        }
}
