[pfSense Support] load balancing
Just wondering about the site down option in the incoming load balancing situation. I was hoping itwould be possible to redirect to another subnet ie Load balance pool 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.11 Externalip xxx.xxx.xx1.xxx Pooldown ip xxx.xxx.xx2.xxx But when the pool is down it does not go to the pool down ip address. Is this the way it is meant to work of not

Hi, Im new to pfsense and have two machines running 0.92 both with 2x Dual Port 100+ Intel Management adaptors. I cannot for the life of me get load balancing working. Here is how I have them setup: left.pfsense fxp1 Lan fxp2 Cross Over cable to right.pfsense for sync fxp3 DMZ Servers fxp4 WAN right.pfsense fxp1 Lan fxp2 Cross Over cable to right.pfsense for sync fxp3 DMZ Servers fxp4 WAN On my internal lan and wan I have carp's setup with virtual ip's. I wish to use one of my virtual ip's to load balance mail to 2 servers on my internal lan. I have it all setup as per on the wiki but I cannot get anything through to the mailservers on the internal lan. I have a firewall rule which allows * to connect to the virtual ip on port 25. Any ideas? please help. Lee - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Has anyone some ideas on how o use pfsense to load balance several servers behind the pfsense firewall? Say I have three web /application servers. There are thousands of visitors logged in and to improve service levels on transaction, can we put more than one application server in a load balancing mode...? Many thanks
Re: [pfSense Support] load balancing
Its meant to redirect to the pool down server if the load balancing monitoring ip is down. Can you post your slbd.conf from /var/etc/ ?

Re: [pfSense Support] Load Balancing

[pfSense Support] load balancing wan
Dual wan load balanced internet access. Just wondering wheather there is any status on this. We would love to deploy this very soon. But on tests today it does not seem to work correctly. I used the following for my how to Setup the pools visit services -> load balancer delete any pools that are there that do not work add a new pool and call it loadbalancetowans or something descriptive set the description to load balancing from lan -> internet or something descriptive set the type to gateway in the Monitor IP box, put the IP address of a host upstream from the router that can be polled (via tcp socket) to ensure link is up in the IP box type in the lan IP address of the router add a Monitor IP and router IP for each additional OPT interface click save Create NAT-Rules for your WAN-POOL visit firewall>NAT>Outbound enable advanced outbound nat check the automatically created rules. create rules for all your internal networks to map to OPT interfaces.. (one rule for each internal network to each opt-interface in the pool) Apply the changes I am guessing that carp or VIP's are not required for this to work. I have the following queries where I may have gone wrong Q: polled (via tcp socket) A: can I poll my external webserver on port 80 (or what exactly should we be doing here) Q in the IP box type in the lan IP address of the router A: is this the gateway of wan and wan1 on the pfsense box Q: add a Monitor IP and router IP for each additional OPT interface A: should the monitor IP be the same for each wan interface Thanks alan - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Can anyone tell me what the "Monitor IP" field is supposed to be on the Load Balancer:Pool:Edit screen is supposed to be? I would think that the load balancer daemon would query each IP in the pool. Thanx, Roy

[pfSense Support] Load Balancing oddity
I am having a little problem with Load Balancing/Dual WAN. Running pfSense 1.2RC2. I have followed all the steps in the MultiWan1.2 doc. Network currently setup as follows: T1 ->Cisco Router -> Network. Cisco is acting as firewall currently, want to remove firewalling from cisco and replace w/ pf. Want to move to the following setup (removing firewall functionality from the cisco): T1 -> Cisco router (acting only as a router) -> pf -> network DSL -> pf -> Network T1 will be primary internet line Dsl will be secondary internet line Wan and Lan will be using public IP's in the same netmask. The problem I am running into is that when I have the pf box Lan & Wan interfaces connected to the internal network everything works as it should. Switch --> Lan ---> Wan The second I attach the pf wan interface to the cisco router so pf can be my firewall i loose all internet access via the wan connection. i can still traceroute and ping from the pf box out the wan interface just fine but all traffic from the LAN out the WAN interface stops. Traffic is still sent out the opt1 interface over my dsl line but I can not get any traffic to pass out the T1. I have advanced oubound nat turned on, with no rule for my WAN interface and a rule for my DSL interface. I have tried adding a rule for the WAN interface even though I am using public ip on my LAN to no avail. I tried changing the gateway on the LoadBalance firewall rule to just use the default route gateway but that did not help I know it has to be something in my setup but for the life of me I can not find my misconfiguration.

Re: [pfSense Support] load balancing wan
Can you SSH into the router? If so, here's a few things you can do from the command line (option 8 after SSHing in) to see why it may not be working: * Issue the command "pfctl -sr | grep route" (without the quotes). If the outgoing load balancing rule was properly created, you should see the rule printed with both your WAN/OPT interfaces and their respective gateways. * If there was no rule shown with the command above, type "cat /tmp/rules.debug | grep error". If any lines are returned by this command, post them here. That would indicate a problem with your config that is keeping the outgoing load balancing rule from being created. I file a bug ticket last night describing a condition where an outgoing load balancing rule is not properly created if the first three octets of a WAN/OPT gateway are not the same as the first three octects of the WAN/OPT IP address. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [pfSense Support] load balancing wan
Could you clarify wheather the procedure is correct and I have answered my questions right at the bottom. I will look at it again in the morning Setup the pools visit services -> load balancer delete any pools that are there that do not work add a new pool and call it loadbalancetowans or something descriptive set the description to load balancing from lan -> internet or something descriptive set the type to gateway in the Monitor IP box, put the IP address of a host upstream from the router that can be polled (via tcp socket) to ensure link is up in the IP box type in the lan IP address of the router add a Monitor IP and router IP for each additional OPT interface click save Create NAT-Rules for your WAN-POOL visit firewall>NAT>Outbound enable advanced outbound nat check the automatically created rules. create rules for all your internal networks to map to OPT interfaces.. (one rule for each internal network to each opt-interface in the pool) Apply the changes I am guessing that carp or VIP's are not required for this to work. I have the following queries where I may have gone wrong Q: polled (via tcp socket) A: can I poll my external webserver on port 80 (or what exactly should we be doing here) Q in the IP box type in the lan IP address of the router A: is this the gateway of wan and wan1 on the pfsense box Q: add a Monitor IP and router IP for each additional OPT interface A: should the monitor IP be the same for each wan interface Thanks alan - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Upgraded to Snapshot 4-12-2006. The server drop down does now grey out the monitor IP as stated, however now on the pool detail page it does not list the IPs in the pool to remove them (they do show in the list screen).

[pfSense Support] Load Balancing further info
Hi, Excuse my ignorance on this one. I am having a debate with my boss. Please explain to me the basics of load balancing ? IP address x is accessing www.cnn.com It arrives at the load balancer which at that point in time pings a pre-determined gateway / IP address. Based on that speed, it will then submit the request over that line and wait for the transmission ? How does it actually decide which WAN port to send the packet ? is it constantly pinging on all WAN ports ? How is a typical webpage broken down into packets ? i.e. how many packets are there in a typical page ? Again apologies for the simple ness...just want to get my head around the load balancing / round robin concept. Lastly, looking at usage on the interfaces. My WAN port is showing quite a bit of throughput while my OPT1 and OPT2 aren't. I have setup my system as close to the manual as possible but it doesnt seem to be load balancing correctly.

RE: [pfSense Support] Load Balancing further info
load balancing is fairly easy to learn. first step, the user sends a request (i.e. visiting www.cnn.com) his computer will forward the request to the gateway (lets assume pfsense set up with load balanced WAN connections) pfsense will then assign the current connection state to a WAN interface. this should happen with states spread evenly accross all WAN links. as long as information being transmitted between the users computer and www.cnn.com are part of the same stream, it will use the same connection path on the WAN link. if the user goes to www.msnbc.com also, this will start a new state connection on the firewall and would theoretically use a different WAN link than the first connection to www.cnn.com. some issues with this is if the state is set to a very short TTL, then the user will constantly be setting up new states and will be bouncing all over the WAN links. this can make it really bad if theyre trying to use encrypted protocols as it will not be valid and will more than likely be denied a lot. if the value is set to high, states will build up on a WAN interface and persist longer than need be. they will however be more reliable as encrypted protocols will have a nice stable connection. a misconfiguration in how the states are load balanced will lead to one WAN link being more heavily favored than others. this isnt the BEST explanation but should help some. -Sean> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: support@pfsense.com> Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2008 16:50:26 +0200> Subject: [pfSense Support] Load Balancing further info > > Hi,> > Excuse my ignorance on this one. > > I am having a debate with my boss. > > Please explain to me the basics of load balancing ? > > IP address x is accessing www.cnn.com > > It arrives at the load balancer which at that point in time pings a> pre-determined gateway / IP address.

[pfSense Support] Load Balancing with Embedded version?
Is load balancing supported with the embedded version? I ask because when I try to add a load balancing pool, I hit save and apply changes. But no pool is listed, it's like PFsense is refusing to add it for some reason. I also checked the XML config and did not see it listed anywhere. I was able to make this work on the full version of PFSense, so i know it's not a config issue. Adam - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You losing connectivity from the firewall to the gateway? You're far from uncharted territory, the several boxes I've worked on that have 6-12 WANs all use VLANs as WANs.

I have two physical WAN connections that are doing failover and one LAN interface with vlans under it. I want those vlans to use the failover rather than just the default gateway. Is this not a standard thing to do? If it won't work like this, I suppose I could do some routing on my switch to eliminate the vlans at pfsense. I just thought pfsense would be able to handle that.

Port config is in two places, virtual server AND the pool - it looks like you have the pool correct. Feel free to email me /conf/config.xml and /var/etc/slbdcap offlist, if it's truly a bug I'm interested to see where it's occurring. Of note, I don't recall there being ANY hard coded items in the load balancer config. --Bill - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org

Re: [pfSense Support] Load balancing-aggregate more WAN connections
Nope, it's not possible to aggregate a single TCP flow over multiple connections. With load balancing you can at least get TCP flows going at full speed, but you won't bet a single flow at the speed of all connections. --Bill On 9/22/05, Robo.K. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, is possible with PFSENSE load balancing features make aggregation with 2 > or more connections to Internet from various ISP /or some ISP, dont matter/, > no only failover or load balancing? > Thanx. > Bop. > > > > -- > No virus found in this outgoing message. > Checked by AVG Anti-Virus. > Version: 7.0.344 / Virus Database: 267.11.4/109 - Release Date: 21.9.2005 > > > -- > * www.inMail.sk - Vasa emailova adresa na cely zivot ZDARMA > * www.SlovakNET.sk - profesionalny webhosting, domena .SK ZADARMO > * www.inshop.sk - virtualna obchodna galeria s viac ako 230 obchodmi! > - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[pfSense Support] load balancing for internal and external servers
Thanks for reading this. pair of pfsense firewalls with * external carp IP 1.2.3.4 * internal carp IP 192.168.0.1 with each machine on .2 and .3 the bit that works: we have a couple of web servers, and I created a pool, and a virtual server which listens on external carp IP, then added the rule permitting traffic. works just fine, I can see the web servers from outside world the bit that doesn't wanting to test the load balanced pool from inside, I created a virtual server listening on the internal 192.168 address, no rules were required because internal (LAN) traffic is 100% permitted. Using tcpdump I see the tcp connection coming from desktop:highport to 192.168.0.1:80, there's then a conn from 1921.68.0.1:highport to webserver:80 which completes, but no traffic goes back to desktop! nothing in the firewall logs indicates dropped traffic! any clues gratefully received. thanks Paul - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [pfSense Support] load balancing for internal and external servers
You won't be able to test load balancing of virtual servers from inside your network. It's a pf thing and unlikely to ever get resolved. --Bill On 10/9/07, Paul M <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks for reading this. > > pair of pfsense firewalls with > * external carp IP 1.2.3.4 > * internal carp IP 192.168.0.1 with each machine on .2 and .3 > > the bit that works: > we have a couple of web servers, and I created a pool, > and a virtual server which listens on external carp > IP, then added the rule permitting traffic. > > works just fine, I can see the web servers from > outside world > > the bit that doesn't > wanting to test the load balanced pool from inside, > I created a virtual server listening on the internal > 192.168 address, no rules were required because > internal (LAN) traffic is 100% permitted. > > Using tcpdump I see the tcp connection coming from desktop:highport to > 192.168.0.1:80, there's then a conn from 1921.68.0.1:highport to > webserver:80 which completes, but no traffic goes back to desktop! > > nothing in the firewall logs indicates dropped traffic! > > any clues gratefully received. > > thanks > Paul > > - > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
