There is no easy way of clearing disk space in the pfSense webgui. However using 11% is not a problem.  3GB is more than a normal install as Johnpoz said above. Are you running Squid? Even if you manually remove any surplus caching etc you won't get to 0%. pfSense requires ~500MB to run. Steve

You could give me a hand? Case ever with the screen shots thank you very much

According to this post I just found the alerts are not configurable. The developers have hard coded certain things to notify on and once you configure your SMTP server you will start receiving those alerts. https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=60906.0

@eiger3970: With pfSense connected, computers can ping others on the network, can ping pfSense, can ping the modem, but can't ping the Internet. A common cause of that is adding a gateway to the LAN interface. You should have only one system gateway and it should be on WAN and set as default. Check in System: Routing Gateways: Steve

I used Filezilla and Notepad++.  Seems to have worked fine.  Now to stop the DHCP entries in friend's syslog. Yeah, I noticed there was no GUI check box for that.  If it isn't broken… Thanks again.

Doesn't matter, since access to that is limited. What are they going to do? See what IPs I'm blocking  ;D Security through obsurity is perfect for this.

No i did not bypass Captive portal, Captive portal is working however page for authentication is missing. I test it by removing my mac address in the list and i was not able to go to the internet and when i put my mac again then i can surf the net. On gateway, I have multiple gateway for vlan but not all of them are under PFSense Vlan IP.  For my test I am using pfsense as gateway so I can use captive portal, again if i use pfsense as gateway my printing does not work. on DHCP yes windows handle all the IP connecting to Pfsense, and I think this is not DHCP issue. When printing is not working I can reach all vlan without any problem.

i am testing this off my network before i put this in production on my home network so specs wise: archer c7 is home router its giving pfsense the 192.168.0.120 address i gave the pfsense box a lan ip of 192.168.1.1 i can connect to the box without my spare router(i use for tests occasionally) connected to the pfsense box. i am able to get online and everything. like it should. i gave the spare router an ip address of 192.168.1.2. hooked it up on the pfsense box, hooked up my laptop to the router. flushdns released and renew ip. now not getting anything. no yahoo news no techbargin. typed the 192.168.1.1 to get into the web interface of the pfsense box. as well and still nothing. so it works until i hook up a router to the box. then everything goes dead at least on that network. any ideas or suggestions?

Something that i would worry about is putting pfsense on that SSD, unless you're installing the embedded version you may end up reducing the life of the SSD greatly because pfsense will write a lot to the drive with logs and etc. @kambiz: I saw something on the ESXi documentation: "ESXi does not support using local, internal SATA drives on the host server to create VMFS datastores that are shared across multiple ESXi hosts" What exactly doest that mean? Also, do I need to reserve one physical port on the box, on which to assign the static IP for the ESXi for management? Because I did say I would have 4 interfaces, 2 of which will be assigned to pfSense and the other two to the other OSs. Pardon my, obviously noob question, but it's going to be my first time doing this. First thing, that means that you can't share a virtual machine volume to another ESXi machine. So if you add another host later than it will have to have its own storage or use other network storage. This is more of a concern if you have more than one host, such as with my system, virtual machines cannot migrate between esxi hosts if the storage is local only, this is why my storage is accessed over the network with a NFS mount. Second, you do not need to reserve a NIC just for ESXi, you don't even need to reserve NICs for pfsense. In the case of my setup pfsense and all the other VMs on my LAN use the same LAN NIC and i have no problems with this.

@johnpoz: So what your saying is your messed the mask on the interface, or prob set a gateway on it? while doing it from cmd line ;) You might have wanted to mention that you were not using the default IP, etc. Good point, sorry, I didn't think that was relevant.  I guess too much information is better that not enough.  The subnet I was setting was a /8 BTW @stephenw10: If that is the case it would be great to know exactly what happened. There have been many instances recently of people misconfiguring internal interfaces but I've not been able to replicate it. Also I'm not sure quite how that would explain the promiscuous mode. Steve Yeah, it was definitely a strange problem.  Is there a log or something I could send to help you figure out what happened?

https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/3501 https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/3597 Probably others.

Maybe not now, but in the near future. The i5 has aes ni, the celeron does not. Pfsense does not currently support aes ni well, but it will in the very near future. The i5 will therefore likely use less power than the celeron with VPN

Firewall rules - you probably have "pass all" rules. Make those more restrictive, like: VLAN2: Pass source VLAN2net destination !VLAN3net VLAN3: Pass source VLAN3net destination !VLAN2net

Hello! Some ISP networks makes such trouble if you have the interfaces flow control on. So try to shut it off on WAN if. This could be done by adding a line like hw.vr0.fc_setting=0 to your /boot/loader.conf.local. "vr0" in this example is the name of the affected interface and depends on the hardware driver. In your case it may be something else. If /boot/loader.conf.local doesn't exist yet, create it at first. Maybe it's also possible to configure this in system > advanced > system tunables, but i've made research that not everything which works in loader.conf also works there.

@cmb: You can run many clients and/or servers, something referring to a single instance would be one particular client or one particular server. Thank you very much.

My pfSense box is having some HDD issues at this moment so I'll have to update this later on if it works out well. Thanks for the quick reply!
