Hi, I have been running Shorewall for years and recently added frrouting for internal-only OSPF. Getting rid of the route-rules and providers was necessary, it doesn’t work well for Shorewall and a routing engine to both try and manage routes. But I don’t have any external peering to worry about.

At the end of the day it’s all kernel/iptables, so if you check ip rules, ip route for all of the different routing tables, and iptables -L for all of the Iptables chains you should be able to see what is going on.

I did attempt to install multi-isp, using mark columns & track options as such:

ISP1    1       1       -               eno1            $GW1    track
ISP2    2       2       -               eno2            $GW2    track


I Also have "USE_DEFUALT_RT=Yes"

this failed to work. I then replaced the mark columns in the providers file with "-", and reset, but that too failed.

I think I want to disable all shorewall routing management. If I do a shorewall clear, then restart FRR, the interfaces work as expected. Any suggestions on how to best prevent shorewall from altering routing tables? I assumed that removing the providers was enough, but I must be missing something else.

I don't know anything about FRR, but it sounds like you should use the
multi-isp setup.  I don't think it has anything to do with conntack,
though.
