This should work, i've been doing this a while back where I had a combination of a port forward on the LAN and a outbound NAT rule on the LAN interface to mangle traffic. That was 1.2.3 or a early 2.0 beta.

[pfSense Support] Prelimenary DHCP6 support with Prefix Delegation in 2.1-DEVELOPMENT
Hi, For those people that are tracking the current 2.1 DEVELOPMENT branch because they need IPv6 support. I've just committed a number of changes that should make it possible to use the DHCP6 client with Prefix Delegation. For example: On the WAN interface, select "IPv6 configuration type" "DHCP6". You can then select the Prefix Delegation size as provided by your ISP. The most common sizes are listed here, being 48, 52, 56, 60 and 64. The DHCPv6 Unique Identifier (DUID) field is not used yet, ignore it. Save this configuration and it should start the DHCPv6 client on that interface. This should also work properly for people on PPPoE which is currently the largest active base that deploys DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation. On the LAN interface you can select "IPv6 configuration type" "Static IPv6". You can configure a IPv6 address here of fe80::1/64 since it's used for prefix delegation. The drop down below the address allows you to select a network ID from the prefix delegation. So, if the ISP gives you a 2001:db8:::/48 network you could select "7" from this list. The Prefix Delegation process would then configure the prefix 2001:db8::7::/64 on the LAN. The number selected from the drop down is reflected here.

For v4, yes. Because of NAT. > 2) Any chances with getting IPv6 with ADSL working, > given above complications? Some ISPs statically route your ipv6 space on your circuit, then it will just work even without the dhcp6 client. You can then manually configure a v6 address on your PPPoE. Provided you know what the prefix will be. The dhcp6 client is started for DHCP interfaces but in your case the 2nd WAN interface needs the dhcp6 client. And running two dhcp6 clients appears to be a problem when I tested during development. The interfaces page needs to really have this split out so that you can toggle the dhcp6 client for quite a number of types. As this is going to be the preferred method of configuring by ISPs. I manually launched a dhcp6 client on a native v6 pppoe I had access too in .nl. I quickly discovered that this caused a recursing reconfiguration which made accessing the box remotely really hard. Load balancing with v6 is tricky and requires NPtv6, of which we have support but the page is missing proper validation. I've stopped working on the v6 code about 2 months ago through intervention. I hope to come back to it "soon".

Disable the "block private networks" on the WAN. 2. You are not still really using a Alcatel Lucent/Thomson Speedtouch Home are you? It uses a 10/8 subnet mask for the LAN causing havoc with VPNs. All the new models use 192.168.x.1 for the LAN side of things. 3. Configure the modem with a different configuration file that sets the modem up as a PPPoA bridge device, you then get the public IP on pfSense using PPPoE or DHCP.

[pfSense Support] pfSense 2.0 RC1 IPv6 build with DHCP-PD support
Hi, Here are prelimenary images that have IPv6 enabled and also support DHCP-PD for the WAN. I am in need of someone that has a DHCP WAN where they also provide DHCP-PD for IPv6. This is by no means a production image, my suggestion is to try this as a LiveCD and get back to me if it works for your ISP if they provide native IPv6. Select the correct "Delegated Prefix Length" from the dropdown on the WAN interface if it is set to DHCP. Select a network Prefix ID on the LAN interface for automatic setup of the LAN interface. If it doesn't work for native IPv6 with DHCP-PD I'd like to know. http://iserv.nl/files/pfsense/ipv6/rc1/ These builds have a newer ISC DHCP server integrated that hopefully doesn't implode with a leases database. The kernel is patched to allow for Router advertisments on the WAN so that a default route to the internet exists.

The only missing part at this point is integration of a FreeBSD patch [1] into FreeBSD 8.0 so that we can accept router advertisement even when forwarding is enabled.

Re: [pfSense Support] can't block https://facebook.com via firefox
That's why you have firewall rules, you can block all outbound network access. In 2.0 you can use the hostname(s) as well. That should help. Deny all outbound access to ports 80 and 443, except from the proxy server. This has also proved to be a great deterent against malware as this blocks some drive by downloads. Direct http connections will then fail. Not something that blocks everything, but it works well regardless.

Yes there is, it is actively updated once a month, together with the ipv4 bogons update. Beware though that the current IPv6 bogons table isa about 30k entries. We're going back to the internet of 1999 here, things are moving quite a lot. I would like to point out that the IPv6 branch has made significant headway since I started it in october last year. As always, because I needed the functionality. Still missing important dhcp6 client support or stateless autoconf on the WAN. That's not something I can easily chew off by myself. It doesn't help that I have no access to any Internet connections using it either. For people trying the IPv6 branch or images, all the v4 connectivity is maintained as it was before. If you want to setup and connect your LAN to the IPv6 internet the free tunnelbroker services are your best bet. There is no reason not to connect to the IPv6 internet, except for being lazy. Like most ISPs, with the useful exception ofcourse. I know it is something that should have been done sooner then later. It can't be helped with the sparse resources available.

I need to double-check the multi-cast configuration on the switch tomorrow also ( I think I have multi-cast enabled on the switch, but need to confirm that). Yes, some switch support multicast filtering, I know from experience with HP switches that it works with the setting on. So I know they have it implemented correctly. This way not all switch ports get the carp traffic unless they participate in the multicast group. This cuts down on broadcast a lot. I recommend the HP switches, they have never given me any grief as long as I've worked with them. I even have a carp cluster spanning 2 building across the street over a fiber connection. It just works. If you need a managed switch on a budget I can confirm that the HP Procurve 1810-8G works well. It's web managed, supports vlans and basic traffic counters. It is also fanless. The smallest I have in use on a carp cluster is a Procurcve 2650 in combination with a 2900-48G. The biggest I have is a 8212zl. Do note that the software in the 1810 differs a lot from the other managed switches.

Can anyone confirm that if the primary dies the secondary will start up racoon and re-establish the IPsec tunnels, or if this is a manual process? So far management has been very impressed with pfsense so I can finally sneak FreeBSD into production here;) Use one of the CARP IP addresses as the endpoints, then it will negotiate the tunnel again with the other node.

I'll try to get in touch again with the manufacturer to try to have precise info about the LCD model they are using. Try to find out what sort of emulation the screen uses, most likely it will use one of the existing drivers for output. Each driver is specific to a display, most communicate via serial, usb serial or parallel port interfaces. You will need to find out if it uses a existing signaling method via the supplier. If it does not use some sort of existing signaling I would press the vendor for providing a lcdproc driver.

Re: [pfSense Support] how to manage 2 subnets for LAN ?
Hi, As we use an Alix 2d3 board with 3 ethernet interfaces, there is one free at now : could we use this OPT interface to manage backbone network, with an address in its subnet 192.168.1.0/24, and put an address from 192.168.2.0/24 subnet on the LAN interface to serve clients, provided these two LAN and OPT will be connected through a switch to the first antenna of the backbone where all traffic is passing ? I think you want a managed switch that has vlan support. You can then use the 3rd port on the alix for connecting all the vlans.

[pfSense Support] IPv6 support
Hello, I've been working on IPv6 support for pfSense over the past week and have some questions on the importance off certain bits. Ofcourse I can't do everything at once but I can certainly work in some order. What I have now does: native ipv6 static on wan and lan. Route announcement on LAN if you enable DHCPv6 this does stateless config ability to terminate a he.net ipv6 over ipv4 tunnel and use the public subnet on the lan. Ability to add firewall rules for ipv4 and ipv6 on the wan and lan Things I do not have support for: Pretty much everything else ;-) No stateless autoconfig support for wan (or dhcpv6) Announcing dns servers on the LAN All the vpn and openvpn services need fixing. I havn't tried yet. I am trying to get some feeling for what people need first before diving off into the deep end. If you have interest you can find the ipv6 post in the 2.0 forum. Feedback appreciated.

There are arguments back and forth about the use of notebook drives 24x7. They are designed to withstand shocks, most of the time the disk head is parked instead of flying over the platter.

Hi, Yeah if you can run VMware ESXi on the box and then run whatever VMs you need, that's a good solution. Or you can look at the jailctl package and run a full jail for spamassassin and whatever else you want to throw on it. This is in production at one site atleast, a all in one wonder with VMs. The ESX box has just 1 network plug to the outside network, it runs 2 VMs for a carp setup and a virtual switch network where the server VMs run. It's done so perfectly well for over a year now. The carp is there so that firmware upgrades don't break connectivity.

Re: [pfSense Support] Dual WAN + Firewall Redundancy + UPS Redundancy (?) at entrance
I'll have 2 firewalls, and 2 UPS's one for each firewall. As suggested before, cross the power supply cords between the 2 ups's. If you have the option of 2 power feeds in your DC then put each UPS on one specific. Alternatively there are great breaker strips that take 2 feeds and can put it into one plug so that you can still have both ups systems powered on if the A or B feed fails. These are about 150 euro or so. Each firewall will have: 1. a hot swap raid array (only two HD's set to RAID 1, mirroring). 2. two hot swap power supplies. Makes perfect sense, that's what I have. Now for the networking... I'll have two dsl modems. I'm going to guess that I should have two switches, one per modem. 2 connections coming from each switch, one per firewall. One switch with vlans work, but if you can get 2 seperate ones that works too. I havn't had HP Procurve switches die on me for years. In fact, there is still a 2424M out there servicing after 10 years. I'll need two IP addresses assigned to each firewall from my providers (total of 4 ip addresses from providers). These will be the CARP IP addresses so that firewall failover works. You will want to add more for splitting services perhaps. You might want to terminate lan -> internet traffic on a seperate carp ip to prevent nat overloading. You will need 1 extra IP address per WAN connection for each part of the firewall that participates in the CARP. If you have a /29 assigned by the ISP per DSL modem you are safe. Then I'll need a connection between each firewall for the pfsync. That is a total of 3 ethernet ports per firewall (2 wan, 1 pfsync) just for the redundancy; not including LANs. That is correct. Can the pfsync connection be a simple cross-over cable, to get away from needing another switch? Yes, some ports have cable length issues but 1meter is safe. I know CARP is in the equation, I'll get to that after I understand how I'm gonna hook this stuff up physically. See the book, it's recommended. No. Really.

So maybe a bios update could possibly fix this. One of the thing to keep in mind is ofcourse that no Atom mainboard is the same, although they do commonly share the ICH8 or ICH9 or even the ICH9R on the supermicro. How many pci-e lanes they connect to the nics can differ between boards and models.

Hi, Op 1-9-2010 17:00, Michael Riglin schreef: have enough CPU power to support 100 Mbps and above. (Quality and future-proofing is more important than cost.) Well, if you search the forum for the Lanner FW7535 you should be able to find the benchmarks. This firewall platform is sold with either a single or dual core atom N410 or N510 respectively. The price is hefty though at about 600 euros without taxes. You do get a 6 gigabit port firewall that can do 480Mbps in one direction or 210 in both. You can add either a CF or a 2.5 inch notebook disk for installing pfSense. I'm pretty sure that there are way cheaper mini itx boards with dual gig ports and a atom processor. I saw a mini itx case with power supply for 59 euros. Alternatively a mini itx with a single gig port and a managed vlan switch like the Procurve 1810G-8 would still be cheaper alltogether and give you a nice gigabit lan switch in the process.

You can then update 1 specific alias which is part of the parent alias. This should make management a lot easier, the chances of error smaller and possibly the number of firewall rules smaller.

That probably means that the check I coded for 2.0 isn't kicking in. I used to have input validation that would deny a monitor IP which was used before.

That should lengthen the life of the SSD at least until the next generation of SSD comes along that has no write limitations. Really, the whole SSD write issue is not too relevant based on the size of your SSD drive/CF card. It is widely known that flash has limited write cycles, 10.000 is common for current MLC flash. So if you have a 8GB flash card, of which 200MB is allocated by a pfSense image that leaves ~7.5GB free unused cells. The wear levelling in Flash Drives and CF cards will use these unused cells to spread the writes. What this effectively means is that the with 10k write cycles per cell the actual longevity is multiplied by a factor of 7.5. The situation with even larger ssd drives is even better. You install pfSense to a 40GB Intel X25-V, which effectively means that you won't live long enough to see it fail. Do note, that if you ever write the device from start to end that this negates the wear levelling. It then only has the spare cells on the drive or card to remap blocks (~7%). On that note, my much used 1GB lexar 133x CF card I bought when I joined the pfSense project in late 2005 is still fine after running pfSense versions from pre 1.0 to current 2.0BETA4. It's been reflashed a lot, and it's always been running a full install. Because then I can gitsync the installation. According to the pessimists the card should have stopped working atleast 3 years ago. Luckily the world isn't so grim. The CF cards I purchased with a few Alix systems at work though, they stopped working within 3 months. That was with the embedded image that doesn't write to the CF. Which leads me to believe they were exceptionally bad. The Kingston 8GB premium cards in there appear to be perfectly fine. It also seems to have rid them from lockups.
