      we are trying to test load balancing on outbound connections with no nat enabled.
      what seems to happen it the load balacer seems to disappear from the traceroute and becomes unreachable

      loadbalancing looks like it is working though

      lan–--loadbalancer----wan1
                                                  |
                                                  ----------wan2

      traceroute shows
                                  lan--------------------wan1
      or
                                  lan--------------------wan2

      state table in the loadbalacer box shows all the states correctly.
      the problem is there is no access to the loadbalancer box at all.

      it just vanished but works

        i think i understand this better now so you have to ensure that you put default rules to allow to the subnets that are local so that they do not fall into to poolgateways

        like source lan destination loadbalance_lan_ip default gateway

        the source lan desintiation * loadbalance gateway.

        so now i have load balacned carp routed on bgp

        thanks very much
