    You probably didn't account for the larger subnet in your firewall rules, outbound NAT rules, IPsec P2s, and other places. You probably need to add more rules or adjust subnet masks to match what you changed.

    So, I think I found the source of my issue: my DNS setting. I had shut off and uninstalled SquidGuard, Squid and Snort (in that order) and still had no luck. As soon as I changed my DNS settings to Google (for example), I no longer have any latency issues. Put back Squid and Snort and still no latency. So, it looks like something with OpenDNS is causing my problem. Off to try another DNS to see if it's still running ok.

    Well there is a Community Job Board: https://forum.netgate.com/category/63/community-job-board but expect to pay quite a bit for an actual expert to even consider your offer.

    The on-board NICs on the C2758 will use up 4 queues/cores. Running that top command will show what's happening. Steve

    Just happened today again [2.4.4-RELEASE][Vetal@router.place.somedomain.com]/home/Vetal: pfSsh.php playback svc restart tinc Attempting to issue restart to tinc service... tinc has been restarted. Nothing is added to the syslog, I did tail -f to it. Nothing related in tinc.log Next time I'll check "ps aux | grep tinc", today's while in "stuck state" was not wide enough to fit "/usr/local/sbin/tincd" part. I already UI-restarted it

    No. ACB and local config backups are separate systems. A checkbox to allow vouchers syncs to be excluded from local backups might be a good idea. I'll look into that once v 2.5 is stable.

    Anther way that might make more sense when (possibly someone years from now) is reading the rule set would be to make four rules: pass TCP 25 pass TCP 587 pass TCP/UDP 53 reject any You could combine 25 and 587 into a port alias but not sure it's worth it for just two ports. Anyway, that's what I would do.

    @stephenw10 Thanks for the reply. That completely makes sense. I'll experiment on upload traffic shaping to see if this solves my issue.

    @ak-0 said in Internal routing of Vlans: @Derelict Vlan are created under physical Lan interface ig0 and parent interface for these vlan`s is ig0. Actually what i want to achieve is if traffic from Vlans goes out first it should reach Vlan gateway>>Lan gateway>> Wan port and should not do Vlan>>Wan port. Tracert should be 1.Vlan IP (192.168.100.1) 2.Lan IP (192.168.10.1) 3.Gateway IP (1.2.3.4) instead of 1.Vlan IP (192.168.100.1) 2.Gateway IP (1.2.3.4) I`m trying to double NAT for Vlans, first NAT should be internal and then gateway. @tim-mcmanus : If we simply capture the packet and on inspection it can show the source device and then the route the packet came from. So, someone with that much information and hacking knowledge can easily walk into your network. Also, can send packet with header upside down to hit the server behind pfsense firewall, located on VLAN. I've worked in environments that required double NATs, and I would suggest avoiding it at all costs. The only real reason to do this is IP overlap between networks. Security through obscurity is not something to rely on, and even if they knew your internal IP was 192.168.1.20, they can't do anything with it from the outside.

    You are using a wireless router as an access point so this should still work if it is still routing (and NATing). But it would be much better to configure it as an access point only and put everything in the same subnet. https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/wireless/use-an-existing-wireless-router-with-pfsense.html Steve

    Just go to console menu and "update from console" (option 13). After that wait for reboot and your sistem is updated and normal again.

    Can you show screenshots? Normally you just open the properties of your VPN connection, security tab and set 'Type of VPN' to L2TP. Also check https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/vpn/ipsec/l2tp-ipsec.html and https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/vpn/ipsec/l2tp-ipsec.html#troubleshooting -Rico

    @grimson RDP is open just for 1 IP... this should be a way to monitor the blocked sessions.
