Multipath not working since update to 9.601-5

Hi all,

one of my customers is contantly complaining about not being able to send mails.

So i looked for the issue ...

 

et voila ---> 2019:04:02-10:01:16 fw service_monitor[445]: id="4003" severity="error" sys="System" sub="loadbalancing" name="Cant open file /proc/net/ip_scheduler/multipath!"

So all outgoing emails should go over one interface ... for that multipath rules have been created ...

 

Anyone encountered this, too ?

 

Cheers,

Chris

  • Chris, have you tried using "External (Address)" instead of "Any" in those rules?

  • Hi Bob,
    Can you explain that to me please ... I do not understand that.
    I think "any" means "any internal address" that should use a special WAN interface when sending SMTP to the Internet ...
    How can "External (address)" instead of "Any" in these rules match an internal source?
    Greetings Dirk

  • Hi Dirk,

    In packetfilter rules, using Any didn't in the past always include traffic originating from an interface address.  Using the "(Address)" object would force the rule to apply to the INPUT or OUTPUT chain instead of the FORWARD chain.  I think that traffic coming out of a Proxy might need to be SNAT'd from an Additional Address using the original Source as "External (Address)."  I'm guessing that the same might apply to Multipath rules, but I haven't tried it.  I'd like to know his result.

    Cheers - Bob
