2 WAN - 2 LAN - Portforwarding

GSianos

I cant, cause my server is dedicated visualization.
but you cant. if you connect WAN1 to LAN1 and WAN2 to LAN2, LAN1 can not see the WAN2.

maybe you want third WAN (WAN3) as a fail-over for WAN1 and 2

No you missunderstood:). I dont want Failover. If WAN1 goes down, then it is ok, that LAN1 is offline! But my Problem is, that if WAN1 goes down, also LAN2 has no Internet Connection, because there seems to be an issue with dns Resolution. If you unplug WAN1 on your pfsense, can you Access the Internet from LAN2?

is you wan1 checked as default?
in the System/Routing/Gateways

endy66

No i havent set any gateway as default. Do you set a default gateway in your setup?

Greetings

GSianos

No.
i just tested. unchecked vlan that connect WAN1 in my vSphere to test and disable WAN2. but if i disable WAN1 all the VMs that connected in WAN2, go out from WAN1.
that is mean in somewhere is configured WAN1 as a primary.

You must tell us someone where or find myself :P

GSianos

Cause i dont see any help here, maybe our solutions is PfSense Dual WAN Failover Configuration.
im going to tested it…

endy66

So if you disconnect WAN1, your WAN2 clients are also not able anymore to go online? I think there is a problem with dns resolution, because the dns servers are only listed on the WAN1 interface on Status -> Interfaces.

hmmm…maybe...

why no one answer us?

endy66

So you have exactly the same problem?

GSianos

yes!!!

endy66

Is this really not possible with pfsense?

@GSianos, do you have some news? I am on testing since 3 days, but no luck…

I dont know. Look the Problem is, if i use a Gateway Group, then it works without Problems. But i dont want to do this, because i dont want to share one wan Connection for my both LANs.

I cant beleive, that there is no one solution for this Problem!

I dont know.

You know it, it is based on the gateway groups.

Look the Problem is, if i use a Gateway Group, then it works without Problems.

You see it is based on the gateway groups.

But i dont want to do this, because i dont want to share one wan Connection for my both LANs.

You can realize it by using one or more load balancing methods likes;

service based routing
session based routing
policy based routing

like you want, but for each WAN connection you must create a gateway group! Nothing more, but
also nothing less!

I cant believe, that there is no one solution for this Problem!

There will be a solution, but not in that way you will walk on or in that direction you are thinking.
Its a thinking trap or false you are in! Nothing more.

for the LAN group 1 one or all his clients the gateway from the gateway group WAN1 should be used
and in the LAN group 2 the gateway from the gateway group WAN2 should be used to set as gateway.
Thats all you have to do. But without the both or two gateway groups you will be not able to realize it.
Multi WAN
Gateway Groups

Read the entire and full links carefully word by word and solve your problem out.

My problem is, that the version of pfSense i used is 2.3 and i dont know how to do all of that for failover….

Hi, sorry for the late reply (work you know).
I see you made some progress but still have some issues to solve so let's try to do so.

Could you check via Diagnostics>Routes what interface the 'default' route points to. I know that you already mentioned you didn't select default on the Gateways but the system likely has chosen one for you :). My guess is that it is the WAN1 interface that is set as 'default'.

If this is the case you could try following: System>Advanced>Miscellaneous under Load Balancing tick 'Enable default gateway switching'.

This should give following situation:
Normal conditions (all WAN UP):
LAN1->WAN1, LAN2->WAN2 and the firewall itself (dns) -> default=WAN1
Error condition (WAN1 DOWN):
LAN1->No Internet,LAN2->WAN2, firewall (dns) -> WAN2

GSianos

WAN1 & WAN2 has the same GW. My servers is Dedicated and the two Internet that i have is the same. the only different is that they have different WAN IP.

For the switching suggestion, i already check it.

i can not fully understand the other thinks that you wrote…

thanks a lot for your time...
