policy route state?

Ivar Pikker

Hi,

Are policy route rules stateless or stateful? So, do they also apply to return packets or not?

    Ivar,

    policy route are stateful. Think them like firewall rules.

    Regards

    Thanx, but is there some limitations? I find out myself too that its not stateless - return packets to non-wan zone, or non-fixed-gateway on wan-zone still need extra route in static route table. Then I test more and they wasnt start work at all. Then I was suspect maybe I can policy route only to wan zone? I cant test more, its working system now. What are the main purpose of policy route when already firewall policy rules have gateway choice?
