Limiters & Gateway Groups
-
This might be in the wrong forum - it's limiters & gateway group configuration so apologies in advance
I'm currently configuring traffic limiters for use on our public WiFi, and am currently having having trouble when it comes to using gateway groups.
Our main WAN (WAN0) connection is 1000M down/up, with a VDSL backup connection 25M down/ 12M up (WAN1)
We have a number of internal VLANS, for which I would we need WAN failover. As such, I have configured & tested a gateway group for failover to WAN1 & set it as the default gateway.
I have successfully configured the traffic shaper when using single WAN, limiting traffic to 800M down/up on the public WiFi interface to guarantee bandwidth for business processes whilst enabling "fair sharing" of the available bandwidth. With this, on the public WiFi interface I have configured a firewall rule that passes !RFC1918 addresses with the down/up pipes configured on this rule.
My troubles begin when I configure the gateway on this rule to WAN0 - if WAN0 goes down, I don't care about the public WiFi. Whilst the limiter remains working on downloads as expected, the upload limiter stops working.
I initially set this up as a floating rule, however, it then applies to all traffic in/out of the firewall which is an undesired behaviour; I only want the limiter to apply to the public WiFi interface.
There might be something I've missed so if anyone has any insight it would be greatly appreciated
