Hi,

1) Static 77.xxx.xxx.74 /30
2) nothing logs
3) UP, everything is fine
4) Intel both (lan and wan)

Everything is working working... and boom suddenly internet is down, wan 
interface is working. Cant ping from it anything. There are no errors...

somehow...)


Sincerely,
Arvydas

Still not enough info to provide any useful suggestions.

1) What is your WAN config?  Static, DHCP, PPPoE?
2) Anything in the system log at time of failure?
3) What does Status - Interfaces show when it fails and is that different 
from what it shows before it fails?

4) Hardware details (type of NICs primarily of interest)

When down, what happens if you successively issue following commands from 
{ipaddress}/exec.php

ifconfig em0 down
ifconfig em0 up

where em0 is your WAN NIC assignment

Kind regards

[pfSense Support] A way to monitor incoming PPTP connections

2008-05-20 Thread Michel Servaes
Is there somewhere a nicer way to view incoming PPTP connections, than 
to manually view in the System Logs ?

I'd like somekind of interface like IPSEC Status...

Kind regards,
Michel

Optionvalues are NOT correct in my real setup.
Should have removed them. I just tried to point out what options I was
playing with.

 Jup, never said I does not run fine, but still to have errors is
 never a good thing.

 Interference is very unlikely, apart from a channel 11 WLAN nothing
 emits (have not yet used a spectrometer) in my neighborhood.
 (Am using channel 1).

 Gonna try and switch to 5GHz just to see if it improves.

 As for athstats, it's only semi useful as the rx buffer overrun seams to
 creep up to many of the pfsene/embedded/atheros users.

 Thanks for the input, it always helps.
 
 Are you by any chance running the traffic shaper on the atheros interface?
 If yes, disabling it does help anyhow?

 I have the exact same problem.
 Updated yesterday to PFsense 1.2 (FreeBSD 6.3) based with the updated
 HAL driver but still have tons of IN errors.

 There no real better settings situation from what I can tell, so I too
  blame the problems on the driver or on a issue with the hardware.

 It could also be interference, and potentially other things as well.
 Run athstats at a command prompt or the command page and you may get
 some helpful info. My trusty old pre-1.0 pfSense AP always shows tens
 of thousands of errors on the ath interface but it works fine. It's
 one of those things I want to look at closer eventually, but I don't
 have any problems with it, so it hasn't been a priority.

This makes a very big difference. The mbuf counter does now show a 
normal behavior.


175/350/525 mbufs in use (current/cache/total)
even with Zattoo and incoming Torrent Load...

ath error counters are still the same, but no more mbuf trouble...

Is it usable now apart the ath errors?!
Meaning it does not disconnect and weird behaviour.

[pfSense Support] secondary or virtual IP's

2008-05-20 Thread Curtis Maurand
Hello, 
Having slight problem with a 1.2 version of the firewall. 

We have a working configuration using an openroute GT900 (don't go there...I 
know its old.). with an outside client who insists on assigning us a 
10.nnn.nnn.nnn network for use with an IPSec tunnel. We're already have 
10.0.1.0/24. set up. 

rl0 - 10.0.1.2 
de0 - (WAN IP Address) 

Currently I have an IP address assigned to the LAN interface and all is good. I 
assigned the virtual IP of 10.201.8.115/28 to the network. (the gateway address 
(10.201.8.113) is currently in use, I'm only testing here.). I have a virtual 
machine set up on this lan, and it can ping the current gateway. However, it 
cannot ping the .115 address that is on this interface from either the current 
gateway (.113) or the virtual machine (.114). Is there something I need to do 
to make this work or do I need a 3rd interface? 

Thanks in advance, 
Curtis Maurand

This is thoroughly confusing. Do you have a diagram of some sort
illustrating this layout?

Not that I'm aware of, that would be nice. Feel free to open a feature
