Multi-WAN with squid3 proxy server
-
Anyone please?
-
We are doing load-balancing but I'm not at work right now.
I will look tomorrow and tell you how we're doing it.
As far as I remember with regard to the rules the sequence is nat then floating then Interface group then interface.https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Firewall_Rule_Processing_Order
I will get back to you in the morning.
Our set up maybe a little more complicated or not. We have multiple wan and also multiple Pfsense boxes.

Sure, thanks. I'll wait for your reply.
-
Do we have anything on this?
-
BUMP!

From what I know, squid will always use the default gateway in a multi-WAN config no matter what you do.

@KOM:

By default, yes. But there were "fixes" for this on the past versions of pfsense. These don't work on the latest version though and I don't really understand how they work (which is why I decided to make my own thread).
If you think of it though, localhost services should have a way to use the multiwan gateway. Pfsense itself, when downloading a firmware update, only uses the default gateway by default.

Anybody please?

Please help? Anyone? Is this not a valid question?

If nobody has responded then it usually means that nobody knows.

Have you ever tried the floating rules? There you can target the firewall itself as the source. I haven't tried this yet, but soon I'll have to.

Yes I did. If you've read post # 2 of this thread, the details of the rule I've made are there.
