except when you do failover or load balancing, then you can specify
wether the conenctions should be load balanced or use interfaces with
priority (failover), depending on the pattern.

[pfSense Support] Squid package installed

2009-06-02 Thread

Hello all

   Sorry to disturb again. I install squid package and it's say 
installation completed but I can find any package
in "Installed packages" and it still show "Unable to retrieve package info 
from www.pfsense.com. Cached data will be used. "

what's it mean?

Thank you.

Quickly looking at the previous posts, I don't see where you've specified what 
type of connection you're setting your WAN to. Is it PPPoE? Static? DHCP? Etc?

Just another quick item to check on...

Here's what I would suggest trying.

1. Plug into the serial console. Reset to default. When setting up
interfaces use autodetect. Don't plug in the cable until it tells you
to. Just set up WAN and LAN. Apply changes and then try pinging an
internet host that you know will respond. yahoo.com will,
microsoft.com will not (you should see an IP address anyway if DNS is
working).

2. Download the config file from your pfsense that is working as
expected. Edit it, changing only the name of the WAN and LAN
interfaces to vr0 and vr1, or as you like. Upload the config to your
soekris box and test.

If neither of the above works for you then I would have to suspect
hardware troubles or serious user error.

Does it matter that my home subnet is 192.168.50.0/24?

I have nothing but the pfsense box controlling my LAN, DNS Caching, DHCP,
NAT, Port Fowarding, nothing else, it is running on a 2GB CF Card on a IDE
Adapter and I have one Airlink 8 port gigabit switch, and a couple Home made
Linux Servers, a couple workstations, couple laptops and that's it.

Actually I told you that this happened in two setups I did, one was on the
subnet 192.168.1.0/24(Small Office, 20 net devices) and the other was on the
192.168.72.0/24(Big network about 1000 net devices) both using Dual 4Mbps
ADSL from Telmex.

Then you must have a seriously misconfigured network.   Chris was dead
on and I am looking at the rules:

antispoof for $wan
block in log quick on $wan from 10.0.0.0/8 to any label "block private
networks from wan block 10

 172.16/12"
block in log quick on $wan from 192.168.0.0/16 to any label "block
private networks from wan bloc

These rules do *NOT* any way shape or form affect LAN -> Internet traffic.

Make sure your interfaces are assigned correctly? Try assigning WAN to 
a new interface to rule out hardware issues.

I tried assigning the WAN to a new interface and that didn't work 
either.  I even unplugged and plugged the cable and checked the status 
of the link in the interface status page just to see if Pfsense was 
"looking" at the right port.  It sensed whether or not the cable was 
plugged on whatever port I had set up as the WAN at the time.  I hope 
that makes sense.  The funny thing is that I actually have two of these 
soekris boards (one that I just bought and another that I've had for 
about a year) and I have the same problem on both of them.  So, I really 
don't think it's a hardware issue.

Excuse me Chris,

I know that, but here in Mexico I had to do that a couple times with
Telmex(ADSL ISP), and didn't know the reason of that behaviour.
Even my old Pentium II has that boxes unchecked in other to surf the net.

You never have to uncheck that for access out to the Internet. Those

Lots of people.


  

I've installed the embedded image into my board and everything work fine

access the webconfigurator from the LAN port and ping things from the LAN
port fine.  I've tried switching which ports pfsense uses, different network

Power cycle your DSL modem. And/or try MAC spoofing whatever you had
plugged in before. Sounds like an ISP issue, one or both of those may
resolve it.

May I ask why pfSense web-interface has this option? I noticed that whatever 
you choose in Interface dropdown list the static route will be applied 
correctly (according to what you configured in gateway).

No, only use one route, the interface is where that router and subnet

RE: [pfSense Support] Does it matter which interface I specify for static routes?

Thinking out loud here.

But the static routes are only for those subnets which are not directly
routable to the interface.  I'm assuming your vpn concentrator takes care of
that already?

I think you'd be better off setting up the LAN3 as a gateway and routing
your packets with rules? ( any with dest 10.0.19.0 out gw LAN3)

static routes?

 

Hi!

 

We have four internal NICs on our pfSense box; "LAN" , "LAN2", "LAN3" and
"LAN4".  

 

I need to setup a static route for a remotely hosted network at our parent
company's office so any traffic destined for that network is directed
towards our site-to-site VPN concentrator / gateway box sitting on "LAN3".

 

My question is this; when creating static routes for a remote network, say
10.0.19.0 in System > Static Routes I'm asked to specify the "Interface"
from a pulldown menu.  If I specify "LAN" as my Interface does that mean the
static route is only in effect for traffic on the LAN interface?  (and not
LAN2, LAN3 and LAN4).

 

After adding my 10.0.19.0 route I've tried adding additional static routes
to 10.0.19.0 and selecting "LAN2" but the system tells me "A route to this
destination network already exists" (which of course it does!)

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Steve



[pfSense Support] Does it matter which interface I specify for static routes?

Hi!



We have four internal NICs on our pfSense box; "LAN" , "LAN2", "LAN3" and 
"LAN4".



I need to setup a static route for a remotely hosted network at our parent 
company's office so any traffic destined for that network is directed towards 
our site-to-site VPN concentrator / gateway box sitting on "LAN3".



My question is this; when creating static routes for a remote network, say 
10.0.19.0 in System > Static Routes I'm asked to specify the "Interface" from a 
pulldown menu.  If I specify "LAN" as my Interface does that mean the static 
route is only in effect for traffic on the LAN interface?  (and not LAN2, LAN3 
and LAN4).



After adding my 10.0.19.0 route I've tried adding additional static routes to 
10.0.19.0 and selecting "LAN2" but the system tells me "A route to this 
destination network already exists" (which of course it does!)



Thanks in advance,
