Pound + HaProxy / Internal Connectivity
-
Hi Guys,
I'm trying to setup a Pound + HaProxy rig on pfsense and i'm hitting a wall here.
Setting up Pound and using a lan IP on a server like 192.168.10.100 as a backend target will work and Pound will pass on the traffic to that host.
Using the same pound config but changing the IP to 192.168.10.110 which is setup as a frontend (it's also a vIP) in HaProxy will result in not serving requests and reporting the 192.168.10.110 as not available for connectivity.I then logged in via SSH on the pfSense appliance and telnet 192.168.10.100 to my port on it which is working. I tried again on the pfSense appliance to connect via telnet to 192.168.10.110 on the frontend listening port and it's timing out. I remoted on my 192.168.10.100 host and telnet to 192.168.10.110 and this is working.
It seems from within pfSense is not allowing me to connect to a vIP and a port from within which is blocking pound to connect and pass on the packets to HaProxy.
Anybody has an idea?
Thanks!
P.S. I know this ain't a "supported" scenario but this is a nice brain-masher
