PfSense 2.1 Floating rules for Multi Wan doesn't work.
-
Hi, jimp!
I'm not very familiar with git and code, but I know for sure that squid multi-wan functionality in 2.0.3-RELEASE was provided by one of ermal patches (https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-tools/commit/457052913414f7c2109fed415e66ed912a530ebe#diff-7304e60ae2121cfce1c817e216d6b95cR14, I think).
I doubt if the patch applied in 2.1-RELEASE. This could be cause of the problem discussed here. -
If you switched your package repository over to lusca, because you were desperate for a solution to this and a bit of an idiot, how would you switch it back?
Thanks

Unfortunately, Going to the pkg_mgr_settings.php page and saving with out checking the box, doesn't revert back to the pfsnese package repository.

To restore or use original repository.
you can no longer see lusca updates./package.sh off -
Does anyone know how to make this work? This is probably the number one issue for many users, which is stopping them from upgrading to 2.1.
There may have been a simple bug that is not letting squid and the quick floating rule work like before.
We really need the fix!

Hello folks,
After about 8 months past, did someone try the new release of pf (2.1.1-RELEASE) to check if the issue still exist?
for myself I've removed squid for a long time ago waiting a one's hero report that it's was fixed.
I will keeping my eyes on this topic and I will waiting that HEROGod bless all of you

Has anyone tried pfSense 2.1.2 Release with Squid Proxy for Multi-Wan Load-Balacing.

I am on the latest version on pfSense and there has not been a fix yet to the issue. Still suffering from the same problem.

If you're only looking for failover capabilities, here's a workaround.

Hi georgio777 thanks for info.

If you're only looking for failover capabilities, here's a workaround.
By any chance do you know if it is possible to maintain Load Balancing for all traffic except HTTP traffic and use Failover for HTTP? The reason is that if the default gateway is down, Squid will stop working, if I can take the advantages of Failover only for the Squid traffic without stop using Load Balancing, that will be great.
Thanks!
-
You should be able to use standard gateways like normal for everything but HTTP. Floating rules are not broken, as evidenced by setting a rule for any source to any destination HTTP with the active gateway being something other than the default gateway. At this point squid is unable to pass traffic because it's trying to push it out the default gateway and it's actually being sent out another.
As long as you have default gateway switching enabled, squid will switch to that gateway when it is restarted. I've tested this and it's working great.

Hello !
Any news?
I test an upgrade from 2.0.x to 2.1.4 and it don't work. Squid is very slow, and the http port don't work.
We can't update pfsense :-(Thanks a lot
-
Same question here, im on pfsense 2.1.4 and wondering if any solution yet to squid (no transparency) + loadbalance + failover, thanks in advance.
-
I came back hoping that after one year there would be a fix but :'(
Wasting 2 lines atm as long as the default gateway doesn't go down. -
I setup Multi-WAN like shown in the official tutorial…. Works only for Connections without squid. And works very fine. But I also need squid. So I installed the squid 3.3-dev package from the package-list, because squid supports the "radom" command since 3.2.
I know it is a dev-package, but I run it on a wlan-network with 5000 Users on peek and its runs very fine. Also with squidguard.
I also know that there is no failover for squid, if one of the lines will be offline, but that is not important for me, because the two lines are from the same provider and come over the same cable. It’s a cable internet connection from unitymedia(Germany).I added these lines, for split the traffic to two lines. *1
acl fiftyPercent random 0.5
tcp_outgoing_address 192.0.2.1 fiftyPercent
tcp_outgoing_address 192.0.2.2*1: The information’s found here: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/AclRandom
greets Smithes -
i am using 2.1.5-RELEASE and squid 2.7.9 pkg v.4.3.4 and have the same issue, squid only work with defaul gateway, anyone have any idea ?
-
Work around will be too easy if you are using virtual, in fact there are lot of ways with virtual setup.
-
Does acl random provide failover if one gateway is down?
