Gateway Not Active when connecting to 4g comcast backup gateway
-
Run a packet capture on that interface. Do you see any traffic there at all?
You should see at least the monitoring pings or pfSense ARPing for the gateway IP.
Is the gateway supplied inside the subnet given by dhcp?

@stephenw10
When I look at the stats for opt1, i can see it sends many out but receives none... Strange!It seems to be something to do with the gateway Comcast provided a Cradlepoint router for the 4g. If I connect opt1 to the Comcast modem router. it picks up an IP and works fine. I am wondering if its possible there is a problem with protocol versions etc. Any Thoughts?
Let me try to do a capture.
-
I gives you a public IP or is the Cradlepoint routing/NATing?
Check the gateway is gives you is inside the subnet is gives you. If not pfSense/FreeBSD will complain and not connect to it as that is invalid. Other OSes will ignore that and connect. There is a checkbox to force pfSense to use the invalid gateway if so.

Ok, The Comcast/modem/ router gives it an gives it an ip of 10.0.0.x, we also have passthru on this device for our fixed ip addresses. This connection works for opt1
The cradlepoint router/nat gives it an ip of 192.168.165.x i have turned off the filters for local ip addresses.... this connection fails for opt1. If I connect a laptop to the cradlepoint it works just fine... -
Hmm, well hard to see how that could work for something else but fail for pfSense. Unless perhaps it is conflicting with another subnet already defined in pfSense. Can we see the routing table?
netstat -rn4

Here is the current routing table. It shows opt1 active and sending thru gateway. but nothing received at the ip address!

I just did a capture on the wan address for 192.168.165.0 segment. It looks like the router is trying to send the 165 segment packets thru the wan default gateway instead of the 165 segment gateway

Ummm
-
Hmm, it really doesn't like 192.168.165.1 as a gateway. I expect to see a static route for it on link via re2.
But even without that 192.168.165.1 is inside a directly connected subnet.What do you see in the system log when you connect that interface up and it pulls an DHCP lease?
Do you have the monitoring IP set as default currently, it's choosing to ping that rather than you have set it?
Steve
-
hi, its using the default as the monitor ip. 192.168.165.1, this is pingable so should work. it pulls the ip just fine, everything looks correctly setup....
ummm -
I expect it to add a route there though and it isn't. If it's rejecting it there should be some messages in the log.
What does it show in the system log or dhcp log when you connect it?Steve
-
Here is what I have discovered so far after more detailed testing
if I set the 192.168.165.x interface to not monitor and assume it is up, then set the wan interface to down it will start using the backup wan.
Once the wan gateway is back up it never switches back because the monitor does not work.
I then set no monitor on the wan interface, makes it look like it is up, once that happens i can set the wan interface back to monitor and it works just fine again.It always uses the working gateway to monitor the ip address for both interfaces.
each gateway sends a ping are routed thru the current working interface,
IE the other gateway to identify if it is up.This of course fails when the active gateway goes down. so the gateway never recovers.
So summary, the backup gateway always uses the active gateway to ping, fails somehow in mapping nat or firewall.
After the primary gateway fails, does not recover because the backup gateway is always used.. pings never work thru the backup wan so it never sees its online.The pings don't use the gateway port they are monitoring, instead they use the active gateway...... fails
This is a big problem
confusing
-
Yes, that should never happen. The gateway should appear as a static route via the local link. Any monitoring IPs are added as a static route via the gateway they are set on to avoid exactly what you're seeing.
Are there really no errors shown in the logs when it pulls this and tries to add the routes?
Steve
-
I have set static address for the back wan gateway. So no dhcp at all, still same problems,
What logs are most relevant to this, I dont see any errors, but can capture and post here as the interface goes up and down. Ie i can disable then enable the interface.

Are those all individual Realtek NICs? Can you swap them?
I would be hesitant to use the nfe NIC but maybe just as a test.If you connect the OPT interface to some other router with DHCP enabled does it fail the same way?

I tried to swap them earlier and used the nfe nic, it had the same problem, so i added a new nic. and stopped using nfe nic. But it had exactly the same problem.
It does seem to have something to do with the 192.168. segment, and I am unable to reconfigure the 4g router provided by comcast. Is there some way to work around this issue or am I making a wrong assumption.
It's funny that the log says its creating a route for the monitor address 8.8.8.8 thru the correct gateway, yet when i do a capture the its not going out there it is going out the default wan gateway........
Can i setup some manual route to force this to work, shaking my head...... lol
Yes they are all individual realtek nics, and yes I have tried a netgear router which creates 192.168. segments and it fails as well. If I connect to the dhcp of the cable modem by comacast it issues a 10.1. address and after some waiting it seems to become active. but actually never sends anything thru. I have made sure the local address filter is turned off for that gateway re2.
I am no longer using dhcp on any interface!

It looks like you have something configured using 192.168/16 somewhere that is conflicting. It's not in the routing table though.
I would open your config file and search it for 192.168 and see what pops out at this point. There will be a lot of entries since you're using that for LAN.Steve
