Load Balance with exception & firewall
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hi,
1.
My load balance use two WAN, but there is one android application (liveiptv app that use mac address) CANNOT run if I "enable load balance". Run about 30 secs then stuck forever.
I assume that this app only works if liveiptv access through single WAN, but stuck when use Multi WAN.
Now I disable load balance to run the app smoothly. But the negative side, I cannot use load balance feature at all.
Question: how to make the app works at the same time "enable "load balance". How to config special condition of certain ip/mac/app?
2.
I also notice that firewall (attack defence) prevent my android app (liveiptv) run smoothly. The app run with lots of buffering every several mins.
Currently I un-tick all firewall attack defense to make the app run smoothly.
But actually I want to only untick the blocker and keep the other ticked to ensure security.
Question: Which firewall attack defence that block my liveiptv app?
Thanks

For your first question, you can use Policy Routing function to make the traffic pass only single WAN. It can work with load balance at the same time. It's based on IP address and TCP/UDP port. You can refer to the FAQ. https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/2134/
For your second question, cannot make sure what firwall feature would cause this issue. Maybe you can try to disable each option one by one.

Currently my network is as follow:
Level 1: 2x WAN
Level 2: Load Balancer
Level 3: 2x Wireless Router
Level 4: Phones, TVs, PCs
The link you provide can manage the ip of LAN (level 3) connected to Load Balance.
Can you guide me how to manage level 4?

Already set the AP mode, then all worked very nicely.
Scenario.....I want to set :
IP_GROUP_1 (certain ip adresses) to priority WAN-1
IP_GROUP_2 (all other than IP_GROUP_1 above, which include the future to be assigned ip) to priority WAN-2
How to config the routing priority in easy way?
Kindly guide.

I think you need to set up two items for policy routing.
1. Make IP_GROUP_1 go to WAN1. So source IP of this item should be IP_GROUP_1, destination and service type is ALL. Choose interface as WAN1. Make the rule ID as 1 to make it has the highest priority.
2. Make IP_GROUP_2 go to WAN2. I think IP_GROUP_2 means all IP addresses just not include IP_GROUP_1. So for the second item, set up source IP as ALL IP. Destination and service type is ALL. Choose interface as WAN2. Because IP_GROUP_1 data will match the first item, so it will not match the second item. So IP_GROUP_1 will go to WAN1. Other data will match the second item, then go to WAN2.
