RE: [pfSense Support] Wanted: Tips for a VLAN capable switch (for home use)

2008-06-09 Thread Nelson Papel
A Nortel Baystack 450-24, they are dirt cheap on Ebay ($15-30).  I used one
for a couple years with no faults.

 

Also the Cisco 2924 and 2950, but those are a bit pricier.

home use)

 

I'm about to buy one myself, cos my old 1900 Catalyst can't handle VLANs
properly.

Anyone has experienced 3com baseline 2226 switch?

I was even thinking of getting the Linksys SLM2008 for its cheap price, any
suggestions?



P.S. here in mexico I can't find the HP Procurve switches for less than 560
dls. 


Saludos.

Victor.

erm, IOS updates are a commercial service from Cisco, so it's probably not a
wise move to offer this kind of help on a public mailing list!

[pfSense Support] Snort / Squid /imspector startup

2008-06-09 Thread Brent
Hello..im running pfsense 1.2 release..using it as a firewall / nat. Im also
using squid , snort , imspector. What seems to be happening..is when i update
the rules for snort OR if i have to stop any of those services for any reason,
starting them up is always a pain as usually squid starts up with no prob but
snort will say its running and there will be a daemon in the process list
but it actually isnt doing anything .. I can usually tell by the amount of
memory in use as well as nothing gets logged in the system logs with regard to
snort.. i usually have to stop  start all the services that i use in hopes
that snort will startup  work.  my question is is there a particular start up
order when starting snort / squid ?

thank you

Brent,

This issue has been covered a few times in the forums with various 
causes and effects.  I recommend you check the forums out for further 
details.  Most problems with snort not blocking or detecting things boil 
down to not enough memory available to snort and/or the wrong detection 
heuristic being used.  Keep in mind that both squid and snort are VERY 
memory intensive applications and that if you don't have enough memory 
to feed the beasts, your results will be disappointing.
