What do you have as the monitor IP for the gateway? I use 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 etc, once had a load go offline when a supplier changed their gateway IP.

Routing???  There is ZERO routing you would be doing.. If you were adding routes in pfsense you were doing it WRONG!!! Pfsense automatically like any router if it has a directly attached knows how to get there.. As to firewall rules. Your first rule on your vlan should of been any any until you understand what your doing.. The gateway on a device in a vlan would be pfsense IP address in that vlan - this is auto handed out by the dhcp server.. When you setup a new network in pfsense there would be NO gateway added to pfsense or you just turned it into a wan interface.

No. You want to set up a gateway group for the ones that actually give you internet access. But it is usually FAR better if they are all on their own interface.

@thompsonm: Can you elaborate a little bit? You're not being very clear. I just want to know, in a setup with multiple VLANs, WANs, and multiple physical NICs, is there a way to have only instance of snort running? Run snort on each parent interface, it picks up all the vlan traffic.

That's unfortunate to hear. Okay. Thanks for the clarification.

Provider equipment may reside on different switches. Probably different rooms, floors or buildings.

thank you again, to finish my explanation…still I have home router (no manage inter-vlan) so long time ago I bought switch Layer 3 to create different subnet for each department in my office. In few days I want to replace my router with the firewall and I thought to keep the same configuration for switch (it's a pity downgrade to L2) and the setup properly the firewall but I see nosense... bye

Thanks alot. It was a firewall issue. One of the devices i tried to ping was a NAS which had the firewall enabled eventhough it said "off".

why dont you use LAGG on lan interfaces?

@Derelict: If you do the ping from pfSense, the traffic is same-subnet. If you do it from another VLAN the traffic is from a remote subnet. Check the software/windows/symantec/etc firewall on the target node. how does that work? The target does not have any firewall.. And now i'm having another issue with a port forward, which seems not to be working at all…. this is weird...

Okay, after reading and testing some stuff i could answer the question myself. I enabled forwarding in the unbound / Dns-Resolver settings and set up some dns server for each gateway in general setup. Then i set my LAN ip Address of the firewall as DNS Server for OpenVPN and Ipsec clients.

It has been a while. So I'm happy to present to you my final working solution. Using Version 2.4.2-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) Have a pfSense Firewall with 2 WAN connections (Failover). Created Gateway Group [FAILOVER] with 1 x Wan Tier 1 und 1 x Wan Tier 2. Wan Tier 1, is a DSL Connection. Call it WAN_Main Wan Tier 2, is a 4G backup connection. Call it WAN_4G On my firewall, I configured an OpenVPN client. [u]This client should always be connected to a server in the cloud AND use WAN_Main if online[/u]. So, if WAN_Main fails, the vpn should fallback to WAN_4G. As soon, WAN_Main is back online, the vpn client reconnects with WAN_Main. To do so, create a VPN Client as usually, but use Gateway Group [FAILOVER] as interface.

Nobody any ideas? Can't make it work sadly…
