Title: Multi Wan with bridge mode
Post by: unam on May 16, 2017, 12:14:35 pm

Hello,

I am currently testing multi wan capabilities with ethernet/4G uppon bridged configuration.

In the past I already played with multi wan setup in router mode but I just modified my setup to have a transparent firewall with LTE failover.

I configure my hardware (APU 3a4) with a group gateway with bridge gw + 4g gw. But when I unplug eth0 link, 4G setup does not route the traffic through its interface because (I suppose) I do not run dhcp server, and so my clients does not know they have to send their traffic to my equipment instead of default gateway.

I am currently looking for solutions and testing advices but I am not very sure about the way I have to look for.

Thanks for your answers.

Cheers,

Multi wan by definition needs a router. Bridge works on layer 2 only

Okay.

For the moment I have an ip address on my bridge interface.

So, If we check at L3, I have br0 interface and lte interface.

If I configure my client with br0 defaut gateway, it should work nope ?
