Where can I enable "default gateway switching"
-
I really can't find the location to enable "default gateway switching"
In the Netgate Docs it is suggested that this option should be between "Load Balancing" an "Power Saving" in the Miscellaneous Tab. But I don't see it anywhere. (pfSense 2.4.5-Release -p1)

Are you talking about this?
https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/config/advanced-misc.html#advanced-gateway-switching
If so, then yes, that is old news (and will surely be updated after merging the two docs from the book and the old wiki). But DGS isn't a thing anymore for years:
https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/releases/2-4-4.html
-> look at change #5 "Default Gateway Group"
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/8187This has been superseded by the feature, that you can now select a (failover) gateway group as your default gateway under <System / Routing> that will track if an interface is down and switch it accordingly.

Thank you very, very much.
I did not know some of the Netgate documentation was outdated, so in order to prevent this kind of misinformation, I immediately downloaded the latest pfSense Documentation dated Sep 28, 2020 from here https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/index.html
