Not able to set gateway group as default?

[leandrogbreve]

Hi everyone,

It's my first time posting, and I wasn't able to find any related topics about this. So I apologize in advance if it's duplicated.

I can set a gateway as default by making a PATCH request to /routing/gateway/default with a body like:

{ "defaultgw4": "WAN2GW", "apply": true }

However, if I send the name of an existing and valid gateway group (image below):

It returns:

{ "code": 404, "status": "not found", "response_id": "FOREIGN_MODEL_FIELD_VALUE_NOT_FOUND", "message": "Field 'defaultgw4' could not locate 'Routing Gateway' object with 'name' set to 'FAILOVER_LINK1_LINK2'", "data": [] }

I haven't seen in the docs anything regarding not being able to set a gateway group as default, so that is my question: isn't it possible to set a gateway group as default?

Thanks!

Leandro.

Hmm yeah this is an oversight on my end, I missed this one when support for gateway groups was added. The DefaultGateway model is currently only looking for RoutingGateways when it should be looking for both RoutingGateways and RoutingGatewayGroups:

pfsense-api/pfSense-pkg-RESTAPI/files/usr/local/pkg/RESTAPI/Models/DefaultGateway.inc

Lines 23 to 33 in b62e4ba

	# Set model fields
	$this->defaultgw4 = new ForeignModelField(
	model_name: 'RoutingGateway',
	model_field: 'name',
	model_query: ['ipprotocol' => 'inet'],
	allowed_keywords: ['', '-'],
	default: '',
	allow_empty: true,
	help_text: 'The gateway to assigns as the default IPv4 gateway for this system. Leave blank to ' .
	'automatically determine the default gateway, or set to `-` to assign no gateway.',
	);

I'll get this added in a patch, you can follow #558 for progress. Thanks for reporting!

I really appreciate the fast response. That's amazing.

Thanks @jaredhendrickson13 .
