Special routing.

johann CHEKROUN

Hi everybody

I use services of a datacenter called ONLINE.NET.

They provide IP failover but not conventional. They gave me an IP like 195.154.X.X/32 and they provide the same gateway for all custormer which is 62.210.0.1 but the XG refuse this configuration.

It says 

"you cannot enter a network broadcast ip for a gateway ip"

 

I success to configure the wan previously with a pfsense making a route with a shell command like 

route add 62.210.0.1/32 -link -iface em0

route add default 62.210.0.1

but I don't know how to proceed with XG firewall.

 

Can you help me please?

Thanks!

    Johann,

    The /32 subnet mask indicates one IP address. In order to configure a wan address you need 2 addresses, ip and default gateway. Ask them the correct configuration. The other option is to set only the IP address, without gateway, and create a default route in order to allow the traffic routing.

    Regards

    Hello,

    I have the exact same question / problem while evaluating XG (same service provider online.net) and I'm blocked at the very same step with same error message.

    Before, I was able to configure the "old"  UTM 9 with this "IP-Failover" configuration, but this is obviously not working with XG.

    The workaround suggested doesn't seem to work as I cant' create a default route with 0.0.0.0/0 as destination binded to this interface (configured with an IP in /32)

    I got the error message : "Invalid gateway IP address. It must be in the interface IP address range" (which is coherent with the previous error I have to admit it)

    Just a link that may help to understand the issue :

    https://documentation.online.net/en/dedicated-server/network/ip-failover/ip-failover

     

    Thanks for you help.
