Re: [pfSense Support] SNMP oid's for bandwidth
to measure bandwidth used I use a script that checks the difference between bytes passed from poll A to poll B. I can point you to the plugin I use if you'd like. gives results like: vr0:UP (131.0KBps/8.0KBps) and I get alarms in my email when I pass too much traffic like you'd expect: * Nagios * Notification Type: PROBLEM Service: Interface Status - vr0 Host: pipboy Address: 192.168.2.1 State: WARNING Date/Time: Tue Sept 29 08:02:33 EDT 2009 Additional Info: vr0:UP (WARN 1490.2KBps/56.2KBps) The OID it uses is just off the IF-MIB if I remember right. and most devices regardless of OS tend to respond to polls on the .1.3.6.1.2.1 trees, especially .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2 and .1.3.6.1.2.1.25 , the first of which is the one you're looking for for interface information. 2009/9/29 Ståle Johnsen > Hi, > I'm trying to monitor in / out bandwidth in bits on wan interface but are > having some problems finding the right SNMP oid. > > I found this one: http://cvstrac.pfsense.com/tktview?tn=257 but the OID > i'm trying doesn't return anything. > > Does anyone have any better suggestions for bandwidth monitoring on pfsense > from an nagios server? > > Regards > > Stale Johnsen >
Re: [pfSense Support] BLOCK IP
I haven't been running pfsense for a while, I'm just very familiar with how pf thinks as a firewall. But if I remembner right the state table is under some kind of status or tools menu. There ought to be a utility in there to kill states. if pfctl works from the command line, do pfctl -k {target} then pfctl -K {target}. I think pfctl works in an ssh session on pfsense... again, if I Remember right =P On Sat, Sep 26, 2009 at 6:21 PM, Chris Flugstad wrote: > I have done that, i think iggdawg suggested that if the states are already > started, that the firewall wont block them. > > how do i stop the current activity? wihtout rebooting of course ;) > -chris > > > - > To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com > For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com > > Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org > >
Re: [pfSense Support] BLOCK IP
it sounds like you're running into a state table issue then. set up the rules you think you need to block him, then kill any states with his IP on it.

oh... try blocking on the WAN int based on the source IP.so... block in on $ext_if ip from {badguy} to any.

Re: [pfSense Support] BLOCK IP
Also keep in mind that pf evaluates the state table before any rules, and if there's a remaining state for the IP address it will still have access even if you add a block rule. You need to kill any remaining states for that IP after adding the rule, and I'm not sure if pf does this automagically. toss up your ruleset and NAT tables on a pastebin and I'll have a look at them. I'm assuming the malicious IP is external. Seems like a silly question, but you'd be surprised.

So expecting bottom posting to be and to remain the default behavior may be an exercise in futility. proper ettiquite or not, some people just bang off replies and figure everything is a-ok.

Re: [pfSense Support] QoS with no ingress interface
I see. I was thinking of a more general solution. I'm more familiar with PF under OpenBSD than on PfSense. I see what's going on now.

Re: [pfSense Support] QoS with no ingress interface
Your VOIP traffic is originating from the PFsense box itself? there's no interface that the trafffic comes in through? does the traffic originate at the machine's loopback interface?

Re: [pfSense Support] Milliseconds latency QOS
All you can do is assign a queue to pass VOIP packets with the highest priority. you can't lower the latency past whatever the nominal latency of your line is. No QoS allows for more than priority processing.
