Title: ECMP (Equal-cost multi-path routing) support?
Post by: bitfinity-nl on November 10, 2021, 03:37:27 PM
Hi All,

I don't now if this is the right place but does someone know if OPNsense supports ECMP (Equal-cost multi-path routing) and if it works in a VM with virtio drivers?

I'm asking this because I want to move my server to a datacenter where this is a requirement. I found some topics but they are old and in the documentation I can't find anything.

Thanks!

I'd take that question to the freebsd-net mailinglist:
https://lists.freebsd.org/subscription/freebsd-net

If I am not mistaken it is supposed to work *now*. That means in FreeBSD 13 and up. I don't know if it works in FreeBSD 12.1 which current OPNsense is based on.

I do know that it is independent of the network card/driver. Must be, because "layers".

If the answer you get is "works in 13 but not in 12", you will have to wait for OPNsense 22.1 or use the BETA as soon as it is published.
