Load Balancing does not work on 2.5.2
-
I had this issue years ago, but since I used mostly Failover it was not a big deal...
But now I want to try to use Load Balancing along with sticky connection to see if it works, because in the past when I managed Load Balance to work I had some problems with online banking and some other sites because IP changes often...Couple months ago I bought new servers HP DL360 G8 and HP DL380 G9 and did a fresh install of pfSense... Right after installation I tested Load Balancing and it seems to work, but then I set to Failover as usual... Now it doesn't work again and I remembered that according to my research before years it was caused by restoring configuration... And yes I have done couple backup/restore configurations between two servers... Seems this problem still remains...
I use 3x WAN interfaces and couple of LAN Interfaces, all through tagged VLANs...
NIC is dual port 40G which came with servers...Also routing shows only one default route ?!?! I tried to tinker with gateway weights but nothing changed...

I don't have one to look at right now, but did you find
https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/multi-wan.html#load-balancing-not-working
and
https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/multiwan/load-balance-and-failover.html -
Yes I read these before, but it isn't resolve the problem... As I mentioned LB working at the beginning, but stop after time or mostly when I restore config to another machine... Both are with same NIC's so I don't even need to mess with configuration after restoring :)
Everything other except Load Balancing work fine on my opinion...
