Load Balance on multipe IP on single wan
-
I need to migrate one old bsd routers to pfsense
My ISP is providing 5ips static thru one fiber connections.
How can i get all 5ips on one wan interface.
and finally enable the loadbalance as per the instruction on pfsense wiki.
these are how my old routers handle round robin loadbalance.
keyrate="fast"
saver="blank"
usbd_enable="YES"
sshd_enable="YES"
snmpd_enable="YES"
ipnat_enable="NO"
inetd_enable="YES"
mpd_enable="YES"
sendmail_enable="NONE"
inetd_flags="-wW -C 60 -a 127.0.0.1"
gateway_enable="YES"
ifconfig_fxp2="inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.xxx polling up"
ifconfig_fxp2_alias0="inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.255"
ifconfig_fxp2_alias0="inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.255"
ifconfig_fxp2_alias0="inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.255" (These continues to about 5 ext ipsourip="{xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,continues 35 ips}"
pool1="{xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,continues 1 ips}"
pool2="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" -
I'd be real interested to see a response on this one. I'm getting a new setup where my ISP will be providing five static IPs on a single cable connection. If there's a way to support all five IPs on a single WAN port, that'd be ideal.

You can provide multiple IPs on a single WAN port, that's what virtual IPs are for. You just can't do this kind of loadbalancing if I got the original config of akmis right..

Well you can do it with nat.
I do not recall if you can enter aliases on the nat part but if you can than that's the way to do it.
Though failover is not going to work or i do not know if it makes sense here.
