Title: Gateway Group with VPNs stay Pending
Post by: Jalau on October 18, 2019, 04:22:27 am
Hey guys,
I setup 3 different VPN connections and I am trying to create a gateway group so I can have a fallback routine in place if one of them failes. I can just select their interfaces manually in the firewall rule which works and routes all my traffic through the selected VPN however this does not allow for a fallback mechanism. Now sadly for some reason in the gateway group all 3 VPNs are greyed out and say "Pending". If I select the Gateway group for a firewall rule it will just use my normal IP/connection for some reason even though I added no fallback to my normal IP/connection to the group. I am running version OPNsense 19.7.5-amd64. I restarted the server like 20 times already, no success.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Solved. Had to add monitoring IPs to the gateways.
Still wondering though why they are required even though the VPNs as a single gateway worked fine in the firewall.
