[pfSense] Returning gateways

2014-11-26 Thread Marcus van Dam

Hi,

I am running on 2.2-BETA (amd64) for quite a while now, everything is 
fine except for one mayor annoyance;
How to trash a gateway? I have a couple of interfaces with their IPv4 
and IPv6 config set to none, for example VPN tunnels. Or IPv4 only 
interfaces. If I try to delete the unnecessary IPv6 gateway or both they 
just re-appear, enabled and all. Of course never reaching up status for 
the various reasons.


Is it a bug, a feature or my fault? :)

-Marcus

Sounds like what should happen, and what's always happened, by design.
Dynamic gateways should be there in most VPN circumstances with an
assigned OpenVPN interface, and can't be deleted. They act the same as
a DHCP or other dynamic-type interface in that regard. You don't have
to use them, and can disable monitoring on them if you want, but they
have to be there.

Hhmm, I see; just didn't remember it was like that before.

I did notice that we can now delete the gateway from the OpenVPN tap 
device (bridged to em1). Any chance we can then at least hide disabled 
gateways from the status pages? The IPv4 gateway on a SixXS tunnel will 
never come up for example.


On that same note, we also have the OpenVPN rules tab, but rules are 
handled in it's separate interface tab. Or in case of some bridge 
members, not at all.


Slightly off-topic: If you bridge a tap with an lan interface, would you 
recommend filtering on the lan or the bridge it self (tap - lan should 
be transparently bridged.)
