17.7 Legacy Series / Re: routing from one interface to another
« on: November 03, 2017, 02:27:51 pm »
ok so I realized something else, when a gateway is created it seems to be taken in consideration whether it is configured in an interface or a rule or not.
If I setup a gateway with the igb3 ip on that interface to force the ix1 vlan to go through it (which apparently is not needed), then igb3 cannot see the ix1 vlan anymore....even-though I haven't configured igb3 to use that gateway !
so now igb3 and the ix1 vlan see eachother on the second firewall but a request from the first firewall to the ix1 vlan will go to the igb3 interface on the first firewall and stop there (even with the static route to igb3 on the second firewall)
Another thing, I changed the ip range to see if it wasn't anything related to that range that was sticking anywhere, but that didnt help.
Then when I did that all the dhcp servers where in "recover-wait" state "partner-down" although I only changed one interface ??
And pinging from one interface to another is ok as always but all the dhcp servers ard down now.
I have tried to restart the service and reboot but that hasn't helped so far, hopefully they will come back, but not very reassuring..
UPDATE: the dhcp servers are back but it took them 15-20min to get back to normal
