Is this a CARP setup? If yes make sure that everything is configured
correctly and the machines don't failover back and forth for some
reason. Switching Master/Backup state all the time could produce this
kind of packetloss.

        Subject: [pfSense Support] Losing Packets through the firewall
        
        

        Guys,

         

        Great product, however I appear to be losing packets when
traversing the firewall and Im not sure wether or not this should be
happening.

         

        Let me give you some background.

         

        I have 2 pfsense boxes running on p4 3Ghz 2Gb RAM HP Servers
with 4 interfaces in each.

         

        Sitting behind the pfsense boxes are 3 freebsd boxes running web
services.

         

        From the WAN when we perfom a simple test (approx 6 packets per
second) to the web services we intermittently experience packet loss to
the extent that our test fails. If I turn the firewall off in pfsense
this issue goes away.

         

        Hopefully someone can shed some light of this little problem

         

        CHeers
