    Status - System Logs is the first place to start.  From there, select the tabs that may hold detail you need eg. General and Gateways.

    Not that I'm aware of.  You can create firewall rules that adhere to a schedule, but not like what you're asking about where it's targeted per IP with timeouts.

    @chemlud:

    Cards are getting bigger and cheaper and the larger the partition the lower the wear-out due to repeated use of cells? Just a short version of reasons.

    This isn't correct.  All modern cards I've encountered will wear-level across all cells, regardless of how large your partitions are.  Using partitions larger than you need can actually prevent wear-leveling from happening correctly depending on how your file system handles deletes.

    Hi,

    I did some debugging and it looks like that pfSense is not specifically using HTTP basic auth when using a "custom" dyndns provider (see https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=66977.0). As I am unfamilar with the structure on pfSense, I'm not sure how to add an additional dyndns provider. All I found is the file /etc/inc/dyndns.class which seems to define how hosts are updated for a specific service, but it doesn't define which services are available. If anyone can hint me in the right direction, I'd be happy to provide a patch on github to include ydns as additional dyndns provider.

  • Transition from MS ISA 2006 to PFsense

    Thanks for your replies. I have the PFsense box setup in parallel, on a test LAN now, and I think I can set it up to talk to the Town's DC/DNS for further testing. Beyond that, I should be able to cut it over during off hours.

    We're not using any of the AD integration features of ISA (firewall rules are all IP-based), and I'd like to do basic traffic shaping for our future VOIP phone system. I'm not planning anything too fancy, just making sure there's a small amount of bandwidth available for our staff computers at all times to prevent lag/high pings. I work at a public library so we try not to filter or limit too much.

    We also have two domain controllers running that only support ISA, since they switched over to the Town's domain a few years back but did not want to remove ISA from it's original domain. Yikes!

    The NAT trick is the proper way of doing it.  Using virtual IPs for addresses you don't own is kind of a hack.

    OK i tray to make NAT.. but may be not in right way.

    How to make a NAT 1:1, all local network addresses to go out from one public IP, but not to use the "any" option?

    x.x.x.1 ip WAN <=> go out IP's from LAN
    x.x.x.2 ip WAN <=> go out IP,s from OPT 1

    PS: there is only one WAN interface!

    I know in the past Comcast has insisted on unplugging the modem for a minute a half before turning it back on.  And if you still have one of those old cable modems and VOIP services built into the same modem, they had battery backups in the modem for the VOIP services so you couldn't just pull the power.  PITA.

    Now they're injecting javascript ads into their citywide WiFi off of paying customers with their opt-out program.  And you wonder why people hate Comcast.

    @pfsense_noob:

    I've got the PC set to a static IP quite high up in the available range (obviously outside the DHCP range for pfSense), so I'd be surprised if that's the case. I'll double double check though. Thanks for the reply!

    Hey, I went through it once more on both routers - the BT Home Hub appears to want to be in control, even when you have disabled firewall, DHCP and set its gateway to pfSense's - the wifi worked, but the wired connections routed to the homehub, which they obviously shouldn't.

    With the netgear router, after a factory reset and a second try, it appeared to work. Can I ask where would be best to check on the pfSense side of things?

    So 10.2.2.3 is your GS5?
    What options did you use to capture that?
