      I have two LDAP servers that replicate together in my LAN and I want to do some inbound load balancing for the LDAP requests that come from my WAN interface. I have pfsense in 2.6 community edition. I don't find any tutorials for my pfsense version. Can someone helps please ? Thank you.

        @frederic-0 You'd need a proxy package like https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/packages/haproxy.html

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

            Without a proxy there is no concept of ensuring a client gets directed to the same backend for subsequent requests, and no way to handle removing a down/unresponsive server from the pool of available targets.
