Hello David, All My router stops periodically and I can restart it by restarting Shorewall. Lynn has suggested it might be a memory problem. Any suggestions how I can monitor RAM usage? Commands built into Bering? Packages I can run?
1. The Ram usage can be viewed from the weblet . 2 activate Spacecheck in lrp settings file and you get an email as the "disks" fill ( as long as your router isn't stopped yet ;)) 3. But I don't think the RAM is the cause ,sorry I didn't follow this treat before, What do you mean by router stops. I suppose you mean, you cannot get connections to the internet anymore. Restarting Shorewall does reinstall the firewall rules. and detects some broadcasts thereby setting a route Only restarting shorewall doesn't delete files. ( and doesn't create more space on the Filesystem so why should the router function after the restart if it was a "disk ram" problem ) It might however stop remaining unused connections and clear your table from "outdated connections" The same should be done by takeing your external interface down and up again. I have seen a pseudo none functional router after someone playing network games on theinternal net and requesting for free gameserver. just filled the tables. ( kind of unpurposed DOS ;) ) Try useing weblet to view the active connections or with the different shorewall commands If you have to much active connections weblet will time out.
