23.1 Production Series / NAT issue
« on: January 27, 2023, 11:54:01 pm »
I had posted this in the 22 forum earlier. https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=31961.msg154477#msg154477
The issue with outbound NAT seems to still persist in the 23 version also. The issue is that if there is a gateway group with dual WAN interfaces in it and for operational reason a specific outbound traffic is redirected to a gateway with a lower priority (other than the gateway group) sometimes the outbound traffic seems to land up on the wrong gateway. Rebooting the appliance does not seem to solve the issue, but manually clearing the state table again puts the traffic onto the correct gateway.
This used to work fine in all earlier versions so seems to be some kind of bug introduced recently.
Skip rules when gateway is down is checked to prevent gateway rewrite on failure.
