Title: Need help Configuring Multi WAN Setup in a Routed LAN Setup
Post by: neelim on August 25, 2022, 02:57:54 pm
Hi I am using OPNSense and I want to achieve multi Wan Load Balance and fail-over but it is not working. My Network Layout is given below.

WAN – DHCP – 192.168.0.x (Monitor IP – 8.8.8.8)

WAN2 - DHCP – 192.168.29.x (Monitor IP – 1.1.1.1)

LAN – 192.168.1.0/24 (Not in Use)

XG1 – 172.16.0.1 – Connected to a Mikrotik Router having IP 172.16.0.2. The Mikrotik Router have 3 Networks 172.16.10/25, 172.16.20/24 and 172.16.3.1/25 and 172.16.4.1/23. All traffic coming from Mikrotik is routed towards OPNSense.

Now with this setup it works with single gateway. However, gateway failover and load balance does not work. My Actual LAN Network is 172.16.10/25, 172.16.20/24 and 172.16.3.1/25 and 172.16.4.1/23

Also my WAN Gateway is always shown as down and only WAN2 gateway is shown as up even though WAN is actually UP. When I ping

Please help me to achieve gateway load balance and failover with this setup.

Please see the attached pdf file for screenshots of OPNSense configuration


Please let me know if any more information needs to be shared


Thanks in advance
