Load balancing not distributing evenly...
-
Hi..
i have the native Load Balancer of pfsense (v2.2, old version, i know) balancing SMTP traffic over 3 servers. All 3 servers are always up and running 100% of the time. Sticky connections is not enabled.
I have noticed that the first server of the list receives most of the traffic while the other 2 only some connections.
Shouldn't each server rececive more or less the same ammount of connections???is this normal? or maybe something solved in further versions?
Thanks,
Pedreter.

I don't have load balancing configured on any of my installations, but this link might be a good starting point.
