Understanding pfSense gateway priority tiers

[rizwan602]

Hello,

If I set up a gateway group called gwgroup1 and set up the tiers like this:

TIER1 - WANAGATEWAY
TIER2 - WANBGATEWAY
TIER3 - WANCGATEWAY
TIER4 - WANDGATEWAY

Which gateway will be used most of the time unless a trigger level is reached?

I'm having a problem where WANAGATEWAY and WANBGATEWAY and WANCGATEWAYs are not being used for outbound traffic. When I do a speed test I am getting speed results for WANDGATEWAY especially for outbound traffic.

I would appreciate any help on this. Thank you!

That TIER setup, will cause WANA to be used all the time except when it's down, then WANB will be used until it's down too, then WANC and then WAND.

If you're seeing only WAND used most likely you don't have the routing group as the gateway for your outbound firewall rules which is required for it to work.
