Dual WAN - Time Based Gateway Changes
-
I'd be happy to try it out. I grabbed the latest snapshot, but I think it was a 7.2 build. Can you point me at the latest ISO that would have it?
Thanks,
Joshua

Great! I'll try this out and see how the time based gateway rules work. Thanks again for pointing me at these.

Quick question, will the config from the 1.2 system I have work with the new version? Or do I need to manually rebuild all the rules and config etc?
-
It should upgrade correctly.

Well the policy based routing seems to be up and working. The only thing that is not working right now seems to be the RRD traffic graphs.
I've tried a few different CVS builds. But they all seem to have the same issue. I'm currently using:pfSense-Full-Update-2.0-ALPHA-ALPHA-20090505-1808.tgz
I get the following error: pfSense php: /status_rrd_graph_img.php: Failed to create graph with error code 1, the error is: ERROR: No DS called 'inpass' in '/var/db/rrd/wan
-traffic.rrd'/usr/bin/nice -n20 /usr/local/bin/rrdtool graph /tmp/wan-traffic.rr

I found a link to fix the issue - http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,10855.msg69541.html#msg69541

So, I'm finding that while the rules work, when the policy based routing cuts over, the actual traffic doesn't cut over for a while. If I reset the state table, then everything routes properly. Is there any way to do that via a script or shell command? Then I could setup a simple cron job to reset the state table after the WAN cutover.
Any ideas?

What you are seeing is normal intended behaviour, I am sure you can kill the traffic, but the failover is always gradual so that stuff just keeps working.
I don't want filter reloads at work to shoot down the box.

If you are using schedules and polict-routing rules it should be fixed in last snapshots.
