[pfSense Support] Dual WAN, but only 1 default route...
I have a DSL connection wiht 32 static IP's, and a cable connection. I have one very specific use for the cable connection and everythign else goes over the DSL. The Cable uses DHCP to assign IP's, and static is not an option for them. My office subnet is NAT'd behind one of the 32 static IP's. I want to continue NAT'ing 99% of the traffic out that interface, and out the cable interface, for the 1 connection to the 1 resource, I want it to be NAT'd, but use the cable for outbound traffic. The catch is, I don't want the cable DHCP info to over-write the default route info that I have configured... Can I do this? Or am I perhaps not asking the question clearly? Probably the latter. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It'll run fine for a few days and then it will slow to a crawl and I'll have to hard restart the machine to get it back up. When it comes back up it will have that same message about the memory requirements. Also, I've noticed that if I go into the shell (at any time, not just when the above happens) and run top it'll show that around 500 processes are running...is that normal? No, not at all.

Re: [pfSense Support] Dual WAN, but only 1 default route...
I had a setup similar to this for a while. Our cable company offers static IPs now. You will need to setup the Cable connection as your WAN connection. If I remember correctly, this is the only interface you can setup using DHCP. You will add your DSL as OPT1 and use you NAT rules to define what traffic goes out over each connection based on your needs. You will handle this with rules on the LAN interface for outgoing connections. Because one of the connections is DHCP you will have to use this as a policy based dual wan setup as it is labeled in the docs.

Re: [pfSense Support] Dual WAN, but only 1 default route...
This is partially incorrect. There is no need to make the cable modem the primary provider. It should work with DHCP on the OPTX interfaces as well. I am running a Cable modem at my work now on OPT4 and it works fine. But remember, the key is the gateway option in each firewall rule. This is how you utilize multi-wan routing.

RE: [pfSense Support] Dual WAN, but only 1 default route...
Apologies, should have been less vague in my descriptions... I'm also using DHCP on my OPTX interface: Rules look like... *LAN net * * * GATEWAY LAN - WAN2 I had a hard time getting it to work at first and resetting the modem/router/or switch in front of the firewall fixed it. It was holding on to the old MAC before the firewall was plugged in. So to be safe... shutdown all your equip and unplug (be sure power is drained completely) then power everything back on and you shouldn't have a problem! -Tim -Original Message- From: Scott Ullrich [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 19, 2007 11:24 AM To: support@pfsense.com Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] Dual WAN, but only 1 default route...
