Hi all.

I have about 50 Alix embedded firewalls running at branches. All the
branches connect to a central pfsense at our data centre via an openvpn
tunnel. This solution works absolutely beautifully and allows all the
branches to be on one private network. The problem is some of the branches
are in locations where the ADSL links have intermittent connectivty problems
and can go down for extended periods. We have countered this by putting down
3G routers at these branches and having a Dual Wan with load balancing pools
for failover. This works well and when one link goes down the traffic is
routed via the other link. However this does not work for the openvpn tunnel
that refuses to establish down the secondary WAN link, I have tried and
tried but can not get it to work.

Can anyone shed some light on how to get this to work. This is a major for
us, as the branches communicate down the openvpn tunnel to their financial
app hosted at the data centre and if the tunnel does not come up down the
secondary wan link it essentially renders the branch unable to do business.

All help appreciated.

Mark
