First, I'sorry for my English ability is not good!

Endian Firewall Community work well with Proxy server, they bring great advantage to caching.
I see many questions about editing your Endian Firewall Community load balancer, I also tried setting to try but found that this mechanism works by Endian not improve speed Internet access for lost profit the memory buffer, proxy caching.

If you want to test your Endian Firewall Community, please make: You can modifications your Endian run banlancing

Step1. Create a script to run at startup, put in: /etc/rc.d/start/balancing99startup

# --- Begin balancing99startup ---
#!/bin/sh

/etc/init.d/balancingstartup start

exit 0
# --- End balancing99startup ---

Step2. Create test scenarios and change the default gateway
, put in: /etc/rc.d/init.d/checkgateway(change)balancingstartup

Step2. Create test scenarios and change the default gateway, put in: /etc/rc.d/init.d/balancingstartup

# ---  Begin checkgateway ---
#!/bin/sh

PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin
CHECKGATEWAYLOG=/var/log/gatewaystatus

command="$1"

case "$command" in
start)
   echo "Starting modifications routing"
   if [ -f $CHECKGATEWAYLOG ]; then
      /bin/rm $CHECKGATEWAYLOG
   fi
   /usr/local/sbin/balancing & > /dev/null  2>&1
   echo $! > /usr/local/share/balancing.pid
   date +"----- Starting modifications routing ----- (%D %T)" >> $CHECKGATEWAYLOG

;;
stop)
   echo "Stoping modifications routing"
   if [ -f $CHECKGATEWAYLOG ]; then
      /bin/rm $CHECKGATEWAYLOG
   fi
   kill -9 $(cat /usr/local/share/balancing.pid) && rm /usr/local/share/balancing.pid
   date +"----- Stoping modifications routing ----- (%D %T)" >> $CHECKGATEWAYLOG

;;
*)
# --- echo "Usage /etc/init.d/checkgateway(change)balancingstartup start|stop"
echo "Usage /etc/init.d/balancingstartup start|stop"
;;
esac

# ---  End checkgateway ---

Step3. Scripting made simple load balancing, put in: /usr/local/sbin/balancing

# --- Create for 3 Wan, you can custom modifications ---

# ---  Begin balancing ---

### Luck for you ###

   
PS:
I wish if others are able to use static routes using different uplinks gateway - "Custom policy-based routing with static routes"

If anyone has ideas about this?

------------------------------------------------

Thanks schnoerkel for the advice of my mistakes.

Please correct the following:

Step1. Create a script to run at startup, put in: /etc/rc.d/start/balancing99startup

purposes; program called the boot Endian Firewall


Step2. Create test scenarios and change the default gateway, put in: /etc/rc.d/init.d/balancingstartup

purposes; permanent check the status of links wan (checkgateway)

Step3. Scripting made simple load balancing, put in: /usr/local/sbin/balancing

Hi haiau,

the script "/etc/init.d/balancingstartup" does not exist, it should be "/etc/init.d/checkgateway" in te script "balancing99startup" step 1 ?


or need to create a sript "balancingstartup" created

with "checkgateway", it works perfectly.

Hi haiau,

endian 2.3rc1

no internet available if only a wan

no failover works with the script.

can anyone confirm, you can use the recheck,

Thanks

I tested the EFW 2.3RC1, but the failover feature does not work on version 2.2 and 2.3RC1, I have to go back to using version 2.2RC3. I'll try to check this script.

Hey everyone...
I have made some modifications on the script for only 2 wan connections (which is the normal enviroment).

I have Efw 2.3 Released on Oct 27/2009.
which says it self has support for multiwan failover, it doesnt matter for me load balancig at this moment.

the script doesn't work for me...

anyway, doing some tests, i find this... I do configure 2 uplinks, Main and Backup...
both of them enabled and started at boot and managed(checkboxes selected)
from outside both IP responses to ping as I permit ICMP for testing...

but whe i phisically disconnect the cable or simply turnoff Modem1 (main uplink)
on the logs I see ifplugd detects the disconnection and then, i should change the ip routes, but looking "ip route" output, still have the gw for MainUplink...

but if I manually disable (by clicking on enable/disable checkbox) the mainuplink, the routes and everything changes to backup uplink! and everything works perfectly!

seems something is wrong or missing on the steps scripts(efw) must do to have failover working!!!

any suggestion???

Does the failover system work if Endian does the dialing instead of the modem?

Any updates on this? Does it work on 2.5.1?

I'm trying to add load balancing to EFW 2.5.1 Community and I'm in the middle of the way.

I managed to get it working adding a new script like this one:
Quote
route del default

ip route add default scope global \
   nexthop via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0 weight 4 \
   nexthop via 192.168.2.1 dev eth2 weight 10

and manually running it from shell.

So that the command "ip route" show me the two hop with weighted links.

But at this point I cannot made it start automatically at boot...

How can I made the script run at startup on EFW 2.5.1 ?? It should run after everything else has terminated, because running manually from the shell after every re-boot it does work!

As far as I know the only thing you need to do is add policies and it takes care of the rest. We've never installed any scripts or done anything from the command-line.

We've been running two connections since 2.4 and had no problems.

Ok, so I have no idea of what policies I have to add in order to allows both WAN in a "round robin" mood.

Can you help me ? Smiley

 Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy
I managed to get the script running at startup !!! And now it seems to work !!

I simply edited the file  /etc/rc.d/rc.ipac in this way:
Quote
echo "Setting up ip accounting"
/etc/rc.d/helper/writeipac.pl
/usr/sbin/fetchipac -S

echo "Starting user scripts"
/etc/rc.d/init.d/dual_wan_balance.sh

exit 0
As you see I added the line
 /etc/rc.d/init.d/dual_wan_balance.sh
before the exit 0
So that it launch my script from /etc/rc.d/init.d/

I added some beep and sleep to my script be sure it get launched and now on every reboot it starts!

So my dual_wan_balance.sh is now
Quote
#!/bin/sh
echo "Settings dual wan load balancing"

route del default

beep -f 880
beep -f 440
beep -f 220

sleep 1

ip route add default scope global \
   nexthop via 192.168.2.1 dev eth2 weight 10 \
   nexthop via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0 weight 4

beep -f 220
beep -f 440
beep -f 880

Now the next thing is to get acpi working  Huh

Ok guys, there's just another problem!!
Whenever one the wan uplinks goes down, the route with weights is no more valid.

So I modified a bit more my script just to check my two WAN connection (using ping), then, when I know which WAN is alive I could modify the route policy according to the WANs status.

Here's the script: (I've not parameterized it, but anyone more expert than me could)
Quote
#!/bin/sh
echo "Settings dual wan load balancing"

WAN1_IF=eth2
WAN1_CHECK_IP=8.8.8.8
WAN1_GATEWAY=192.168.2.1
WAN1_WEIGHT=10

WAN2_IF=eth0
WAN2_CHECK_IP=8.8.8.8
WAN2_GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
WAN2_WEIGHT=4

PING_TIMEOUT=5
PING_TRIALS=1

ping -W $PING_TIMEOUT -I $WAN1_IF -c $PING_TRIALS $WAN1_CHECK_IP >/dev/null 2>&1
RETVAL1=$?
if [ $RETVAL1 -ne 0 ]; then
   beep -f 220
   echo "WAN1 inactive"
   WAN1_ACTIVE=0
else
   beep -f 880
   echo "WAN1 active"
   WAN1_ACTIVE=1
fi

sleep 1

ping -W $PING_TIMEOUT -I $WAN2_IF -c $PING_TRIALS $WAN2_CHECK_IP  >/dev/null 2>&1
RETVAL0=$?
if [ $RETVAL0 -ne 0 ]; then
   beep -f 220
   echo "WAN2 inactive"
   WAN2_ACTIVE=0
else
   beep -f 880
   echo "WAN2 active"
   WAN2_ACTIVE=1
fi

sleep 1

beep -f 880
beep -f 440
beep -f 220

route del default
sleep 1

if [ $WAN1_ACTIVE == 1 ] && [ $WAN2_ACTIVE == 1 ]; then
   echo "Both WAN active"
   ip route add default scope global \
      nexthop via $WAN1_GATEWAY dev $WAN1_IF weight $WAN1_WEIGHT \
      nexthop via $WAN2_GATEWAY dev $WAN2_IF weight $WAN2_WEIGHT

elif [ $WAN1_ACTIVE == 1 ] && [ $WAN2_ACTIVE == 0 ]; then

The great thing is that adding the call to that script in the file  /etc/rc.d/rc.ipac make it run every time that a device get inactive or active, so it reacts automatically to the status of the links!!

At this point is necessary to disable the failover for the uplinks in the UI of EFW. (because failover is embedded in my script and enabling from UI makes a weird behaviour).
