Routing using Address Lists

RouterOS General
1

Hi

Am trying to route traffic through specific gateways using addresses added dynamically to my address lists.

It would have been easy if I just had an option like instead of choosing routing mark in a new route to choose a address name from my address list.

Is thier an easy way to do this. I tried mangling it but that complicates the situation because I am already loadbalancing the traffic as well.

THanks

please post your loadbalancing config. are you using PCC, Nth or something else?

We are using the example in the wiki http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/ECMP_load_balancing_with_masquerade

The problem is with the Https traffic that don’t like switching gateways.

We have a firewall rule that creates address lists for al the https traffic but want to then route it through a dedicated line bypassing the loadbalancing.

well, the best solution would be switching to PCC. at first, because ECMP is bad for long-term connections (instant messengers, etc.). second, this will solve https problem (when using ‘both-addresses’ classifier)

We don’t have public ip’s for our customers and run on masqueraded natting. Will that make a difference?

Do you have an example of such a setup? Or where can we look for it?

Thanks

http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/PCC#Application_Example_-_Load_Balancing - probably the best solution at the moment =)
