pfSense 2.0, most recent builds
When I go to status/traffic graph, the graph is correct but the list of
hosts is not. I don’t know if there’s something I’m not doing, but here’s
what I did to test it:
Put a windows machine (my laptop) on the LAN interface, and plug the WAN
into my internal network. I connected to my file server from the laptop, and
copied 10 GB of data from the file server to the laptop. When I did, the
graph showed 98Mb of traffic fairly consistently, but the host list never
showed more than a few kb of traffic for my laptop, and on the WAN side it
never showed the file server’s ip address at all. It almost looks like the
host list is only looking at traffic directed to pfSense itself as opposed
to through that particular interface.
It's not clear to me from your email if you looked at the graph for
both WAN and LAN interface. In fact, when I look at the WAN graph I
only ever see public IP addresses that are local to pfsense. In other
words, I have NATed hosts and routed hosts internally, and while I see
the routed hosts show up on the WAN graph, I do not see NATed hosts,
but I do see their corresponding WAN address.
When I look at the LAN graph I see addresses of individual hosts on the LAN.
What I do find strange is that I also sometimes see the network and
broadcast address of my internal routed network show up on the WAN
graph even though that network is routed through a private gateway,
and not directly connected to pfsense.
So I have this:
pfsense WAN: x.x.224.55
pfsense LAN: 192.168.172.254/24
static route: x.x.225.176/30 gw 172.21.172.101
So the only host beyond the 192.168.172.0 network is x.x.225.178, and
yet on the LAN graph I occasionally see x.x.225.y, where y = 176-179,
although normally it just shows y = 178, which is expected.
I also occasionally see addresses show up there and then freeze, where
they don't disappear and the rate doesn't change, although that host
may be long silent.
