Hello everyone,
I just switched from pfsense with squidguard to Opnsense with adguard and mostly everything works well !
I just have something about gateways failover that worked with pfsense and not with opnsense.
My wan network looks like this :
WAN1 : 7Gb/s fiber connection with a 4G backup behind that switch automatically to 4G if fiber is down.
WAN2 : 1Gb/s fiber connection
WAN1 has priority 1 and WAN2 has priority 2.
Automatic switching to 4G backup when WAN1 fiber is down goes like this :
First packets losses for a small time. Then connection goes ok with higher latency (Fiber : 15ms, 4G : 30ms)
So the only thing Opnsense really knows when WAN1 switch to 4G backup is higher latency.
What I would like from Opnsense :
- When WAN1 fiber connection is down, switch to WAN2.
- When WAN1 and WAN2 fiber connection are down, switch back to WAN1 with backup 4G connection (higher latency).
I successed making it work with pfsense, but with Opsense :
- it doesn't switch to WAN2 fiber link if I set WAN1 high latency threshold high (WAN1 in warning state).
- it doesn't switch back from WAN2 to WAN1 backup 4G when WAN1 and WAN2 fiber links are down if I set WAN1 high latency threshold low (WAN1 in down state).
I tried with and without gateway groups, always allowing gateway switching in general settings.
Someone has a solution ?
Thanks !
