Partial duplicate

@Cry:

Memory usage should be high - if it isn't then it is being wasted. Any modern OS will maximise memory use, even if it is just for buffers and caches.

^ This.

Free RAM is wasted RAM. If it isn't in active use it can be used for caching and such. As the system is up it will tune the requirements in a bit. You can see more detail about the breakdown by watching the 'top' output or viewing Diagnostics > System Activity.

Did you mean Team Viewer? If so please search the forum, since there have been a few threads on the matter.

WE have it figured out very well on the IPv4 lists. These are updated successfully each day. The full IPv6 bogons list is a little more troublesome, but it should be complete, dynamic and stable soon.

So basically you're wanting remote VPN clients to go back out of WAN to the Internet? Yeah that's possible, and widely done. Something like running the server-side of a VPN provider, a number of such providers use pfSense.

Lol, is just a home router, plus is such an insignificant thing that I see no harm on doing it. Plus I did this on the secondary router that I am fixing as a spare router, just in case. So for now, this is a toy for me to mess with!  ;D

People may want to be aware of the duplicate question gunan asked.

Please don't start multiple threads with identical questions.

I'll lock this thread so that all discussions can take place in the original thread

stephenw10,

One of the many options …

If the intention is to block a particular browser through Squid, do it directly in the configuration file. Create an ACL like this:

BROWSER acl Mozilla browser-i \ (compatible; MSIE )

Should this match MSIE and Mozilla based browsers.

Local Ip = Lan ip 192.168.1.123 - PCs on the local Lan get the best speed and reliably access the zimbra server using the local ip. PC connect through the wan to the server do not have the same reliability issues but use the domain name.

thanks for all the ideas on question 2

Actually, that has a dual core (even though firewall only uses one) at 3GHz so that is not the limiting factor. Mine is that I have PCI and it is only half duplex. So the ACKs also have to go back, and if ACK is not received the next packets are held in case a re-transmission is needed. So I only get half speed since I am using 2 PCI buses. I would use the PCI NICs for WAN (Unless it is gigabit WAN) and the PCI-e for LAN. WAN tends to be slower than LAN speeds.

Good luck.

@briankkatz:

Can we install and configure pfSense version 1.2.3 in a home network.   ???
What would be the Hardware specifications.

Hmm. Can't tell if this is spam….

The question seems legitimate if misplaced and basic but the store link seems like spam.

yes i am running squid on 3128 and also i tried using it on transparent mode, but my problem is that when a user knows about squid and direct their proxy to 3128 they bypass my cp even if i change its port it can be easily found.

is it possible for this setup ?

squid "transparent" (192.168.1.1)–-- >CP (192.168.2.1) ------- > Workstation (192.168.2.0/24)

is it possible for the workstation to use squid even if they are not on same subnet?

and also for this scenario i will be using squid in transparent mode
