When I do edit the default LAN rule and only change the gateway to be from
"default" to the listed 216.26.250.1 (my wan2 interface gateway) it locks
up. I cant get back into it to tell you what error it may be giving.
I tried making a seperate rule (instead of messing with default any/any
rule) narrowing down my source subnet to just the block my one client is on
and it naturally ignored it until I slide it above the default rule, then it
locked after saving it. Could my public IP subnets be an issue?
We really have a /21: 216.26.248.0-216.26.255.255
But 216.26.248.0-216.26.249.254 is assigned to router 216.26.248.1 basically
a /23
216.26.250.0-216.26.255.255 is assigned to router 216.26.250.1 I think
basically a /22
This is all done from our upstream provider.
So in the past, we use /21 for subnets on all our linux firewalls (which
have now been replaced with m0n0walls) regardless of what each m0n0wall's
gateway is, we use /21 so traffic doesnt come out of one firewall, go
upstream only to come back down. But given the behavior of this (ie..my
network drops packets as soon as I modify this rule) there is something our
m0n0wall's are mad about, or our gateway routers or this pfsense
box....thats all thats out here other then a few switches.. I have no clue.
I can stick 216.26.250.200 (wan2 of pfsense ip) on my laptop with a
216.26.250.1 gate and flow fine even using the same cabling jacked into wan2
of pfsense.
It really acts like I have wan1 and wan2 bridged and stuck into the same
switch. Well they are in the same switched but not bridged.
Thanks

Edit the firewall rule in question and set the gateway accordingly.

What would be the first step in configuring dual WAN setup after you have
entered each WAN interfaces IP & Gateway as well as the LAN and have 1
client flowing through the default WAN. I would like to make that 1 client
flow out WAN2 now for a test. The box is running fine and has only 1 fw
rule
- allow LAN out any/any. I see the option in the rule to choose a gateway
but I make a mess there and end up formatting :) Advanced outbound NAT?
Virtual IP's?
