          @johnnguyen:

          Oh, so I must config static route for any to DNS Server?

          ex: I have DNS server is 200.200.200.200 ==> config is:
          static routes to 200.200.200.200/32 with gateway 10.10.10.2

          is it right?

          Example:
          DNS1 sits at WAN1
          DNS2 sits at OPTWAN

          You don't need a Route to DNS1 as this is handled by the default route

          But you need a static route on Interface OPTWAN to DNS2/32 through upstream gateway on OPTWAN.

              Hi Hoba, I want ask you:

              Example: I have 3 lines for WAN
              WAN 1: 192.168.1.10/24 GW: 192.168.1.1
              WAN 2: 192.168.2.10/24 GW: 192.168.2.1
              WAN 3: 192.168.3.10/24 GW: 192.168.3.1

              and subnets:
              10.10.10.0/24
              10.10.11.0/24
              ….
              10.10.19.0/24

              Can I create 3 Balancer as follow?
              Balancer 1: WAN 1 and WAN 2
              Balancer 2: WAN 2 and WAN 3

              and I want setup 10.10.10.0/24 -> 10.10.15.0/24 traffic to balancer 1 and other subnets to Balancer 2, can I perform this task?

              thanks, JN

                Sure, just set up the two pools and use each one as gateway in the firewallrule at the desired interface.

                    One again I want ask you, because in system advanced is enable "static route filter", I saw this warning "This option only applies if you have defined one or more static routes. If it is enabled, traffic that enters and leaves through the same interface will not be checked by the firewall. This may be desirable in some situations where multiple subnets are connected to the same interface",

                    I want ask, Can I make traffic shapping for subnets?

                      Because when using balancer with many WANs, traffic shapping can not perform, so I have this diagram

                      subnets ==> router (L3) ==>pfsense (shapping) ==> pfsense (Load Balance) ==> Multiwan

                      ex: at pfsense (Load Balance) I make Balancer 1, Balancer 2
                      subnets are 10.10.10.0/24, …..10.10.19.0/24.

                      Can I make 10.10.10.0/24, ... 10.10.14.0/24 pass over Balancer 1 and other subnets pass over Balancer 2?

                      If can, pls help me howto make?

                      Thanks

                        Please see http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,1656.0.html why that configuration (one shaper between lan and wan balancer) won't work like expected.
