[pfSense Support] About DHCPDISCOVER logs on Syslogs

2009-12-22 Thread Koray AGAYA
Hi,

I created IP and MAC list on DHCP server service and I checked *Deny unknown
clients I have errors* systemlogs below

I dont know 08:00:27:76:84:08 and 00:12:79:5d:df:ec  How can I learn what
does it mean this log and Who is this Macs

While my MBUF usage isn't 100%, is it possible that it's high enough to prevent

When you restart pfSense does RIP work? What MBUF usage shows? Does it 
continuously grow?

I noticed no one answered you. I'm not an expert, so take this with a grain of 
salt: 

 
Adding RAM won't increase MBUFs, if I remember correctly. It is a kernel param, 
and can be tweaked by recompiling the kernel. (It may nowadays be possible to 
massage it by sysctl, or as a boot time param, but I'm not sure). So, you can 
tweak it without adding RAM. 

 
As for your error:   routed[1242]: Send mcast sendto(re5, 224.0.0.9.520): No 
buffer space available 
 

 
I've seen this when an ipfw rule prevented sending, like for a ping. Could it 
be a fw rule that is causing this? (Just grasping at straws). 

 
Good luck, 
Gerald

Right now, it's just functioning as a 'core' router with NAT turned off. All 
interfaces have Allow any protocol from anywhere to anywhere rules on them. 
There are no other services enabled, not even dns forwarder or DHCP. Just pure 
routing and RIP. 

Looking at my edge firewall, I see MBUF usage like this: 738 /1845 which is 
very odd since that box also has 256MB RAM. The only difference is that my edge 
box has 2x128MB DIMMs and my core (problematic box) has a single 256MB DIMM. 
Are the MBUF values calculated randomly? Where do they come from?

 Evgeny.
 

RIP works for a little while upon reboot, then after about 30 minutes or so, 
stops. The logs say nothing of consequence other than what I've posted already.

However, upon first boot, MBUF usage is this:  426 /645  and RIP works fine. 
Then, later, MBUF usage jumps up and RIP stops working. VERY odd. And, I know 
there is no traffic through this box since the other 5 NICs are not connected 
to anything. Only one is connected to my management network...

I've been using RIPv2 but for 'gits and shiggles' I'll try RIPv1 and see if 
that makes any difference. I'm rather stumped on this one...

Try
ping 224.0.0.9
from pfSense when there is a problem and right after you reboot.

[pfSense Support] sshlockout in 2.0

as soon as I connect to pfsense with the second ssh session I get blocked:
# pfctl -t sshlockout -T show

Could somebody please explain this pfSense' behavior? If it is done 
intentionally by developers then why?

Thanks,

Sounds like you're using a snapshot that was creating in the middle of
the sshlockout changes that went in. At one point it was locking out
IPs after 1 failed login attempt.

[pfSense Support] What I can do with my appliance

2009-12-22 Thread mehma sarja
I have an Alix appliance with 256 MB memory. Added an 8 GB cf card and
upgraded the firmware. I just wanted to take stock of how far I have come
with this little power sipper and pfSense in a short few days since the book
came out. I have:
a.  setup DNS forwarding and my LAN machines are now happy
b.  setup OpenDNS connectivity
c.  prioritized my Vonage VOIP connection
d.  implemented egress filtering - did not know such a thing existed and
have subsequently found a screaming mac on my network (UDP port 137 NetBIOS)
e.  implemented OpenVPN  - the setup was not a breeze but a heck of a lot
easier than winging it off the net

I just have to sit back, take a deep breath and thank the folks who brought
us this functionality and put the book together. I've read most of it three
times over and can say that I am impressed. I have had the Alix box sitting
on a shelf for over a year and thought I'd never actually put it to use.
Until the book came out. It is written clearly and covers the stuff I need.
For example, I was thinking of getting a wifi card for the small box and
reading the book clearly veered me in the direction of staying with an
external wifi box to make the setup more robust and debug-able.

I have actually invested many hours learning the pfsense environment - I can
see using it in an enterprise environment on a real server.  The more I work
with it , the more I like it and have to say -- this is a beautiful thing.

This refers to physical interface errors. Collisions on a duplex 
mismatch, crc errors, buffer over runs.


You'll have to debug switch ports etc.
