two rout to the subnet
-
Hi, we have two pfsens connected by two channels, the main channel is IPVPN (routes are announced via BGP), the backup channel is IPSEK (VTI mode and manual route). The IPVPN route has a priority of 1, the backup IPSEC has a priority of 10. By default all traffic is transmitted through the main channel. When the primary channel is down, traffic must be sent over the backup, BUT, the route through the backup IPSEC is not activated. I have to force it, i go into the settings of the static route, click "Edit Route" the route through IPSEC, and then just apply it without changes, and the backup route appears, the traffic starts to be transmitted through the backup channel. Is this normal behavior or a pfsens bug?

the main route is also not activated when the main channel is up, the traffic continues to go through backup ipsek and I go to static routes tab again, open the route ipsek for editing, save again without making changes, and only after that pfsens re-reads the routes, removes the backup route and activates the route through the main channel.

Why do you have a static route there at all?
The routing should be dynamic from BGP. Does BGP show both neighbours as up and valid? At both ends?
