    Perhaps a DHCP static mapping with the ARP Table Static Entry option enabled could be used. MAC address: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff IP address: 10.0.0.3 Hostname: Broadcast-Agent Description: Broadcast Agent (ex: WoL Magic Packet) ARP Table Static Entry: (checked)

    The Pi really works well, mine is an original Pi-2 which has a really slow Ethernet and poor processor compared to newer versions but it works well enough to be far better than the closest ntp servers I can reach on the net. This plot is using both the right and left axis to get a better view of what is happening, with just one axis the disp pretty much swamps the other data.

    Well if they are all static pointing to your dc's for dns what does that have to do with pfsense?  Doesn't your DCs forward to 8888 if that is what you want them to use?

    Hi Guys, Just wanted to reply to say I have changed the IP Addresses as suggested but this has made no difference. When changign teh duplex on the pfsense box I still get the same outcome on upload speed. When I try to chnage the duplex on teh switch the port goes down and will only come back up when takin gteh duplex off and it reverts back to auto? Any other ideas on what it could be? I have checked the port on the switch and the only service running on that is sflow forwarding. Thanks

    Pfsense crashes every few days or hours - what happens to the crash reports?

    Your logs show captive portal loading. The status tgz output would definitely help. Browse to status.php and download the resulting file and attach that. Your ticket was replied to less than an hour after you submitted it, with the main suggestion I offered here, switching to 64 bit. Might want to check your spam if you didn't get the email. I assigned your ticket to me, so it'll notify me when you attach the status output. I'll check that and reply back to you there.

    Pfsense on ESXi - SCSI Error?

    Yeah that's the error I was referring to. If that VM's on shared storage, it's likely some kind of problem with the ESX host and the shared storage. If you're not up to date on patch levels on ESX, it might be some issue in the hypervisor that's since-fixed. Could be a hardware issue with the server if it's local disk. Every time I've seen that reported, it's been a host issue.

    @AEITS_Inc: I installed two new pfSense 2.3.1_1 VMware machines. I left out my cron job to restart PHP and the wweb gui, and was locked out of both within a day. I don't think it's fixed. At least not the community edition. Not sure about the hardware version. There are many possible causes of this symptom. Most of those possibilities were fixed in 2.3.1, 2.3.1_1 and/or 2.3.1_5. The original issue here was the update checking issue, which then was hijacked to the nanobsd read-write mount issue. Both of those are fixed. Locking this thread so it won't keep getting hijacked. If you're having the same symptom, please start a new thread describing when it happens, what you're running on the system, etc.

    Bandwidth Limitation By User NOT IP

    The users will be connecting to the network via WiFi emitted by AirLive. The devices that connect to the network are either mobile devices (cellphones, tablets, ipods, laptops, etc.) through captive portal. The VIPS and employees will have a username and password while guests use vouchers. Is it possible to set the bandwidth by user? VIPs should have high bandwidth priority. Other possible relevant details:     The pfsense server has 4 network adapters one for WAN and three for LAN.

    NTP - Backup CARP Unreach/Pending

    Well,  for the heck of it (not sure why I didn't do this prior to my post) I white boarded the NTP flow and realized a fundamental point; the backup won't receive the reply through CARP. I added an OUTBOUND NAT rule to focus NTP traffic to go out through the WAN ADDRESS.  After a restart of the service, it appears to be working correctly.

    Sounds like you're doing it right by adding an IP alias type VIP. After you do that, run a constant ping to that VIP. Packet capture on WAN filtered on that IP, and see if it's getting to you. That'll confirm whether or not the VIP is working.
