OK, so I got it working
But it seems there's DNS leaks.
Anyone know how to get rid of them?

In what scenario would you need/want to create a bridge on a vm?  Zero sense..

interested in this too… current deployment is on an island that suffers from downtime, would be nice to implement and let guests/staffs know that the ISP is having issues

@crisdavid:

Hello,
Not sure if this has been talked before but I would like to know how it would be possible to redirect a user's web browser to a local page to indicate the WAN connection is down. Had a ASUS router with this feature and would like if pfSense could handle this.

Any ideas, guides or help is appreciated

crisdavid: were you able to find a solution to this??

@ecfx:

I am just absolutely disgusted what I have found here:

no comment.  :-X

I don't care about legalese. The trailer was LOL, RELEASE THE FILM. Make Movies Great Again!

I would take a look at the 3100 if you want an update.. It just came out few months back really, and should be good for a few years to be sure. And is way under your budget.

Hi,

Unfortunately the problem seems to still occur. Although a lot less, I noticed something though```

Both NIC's look like they've got IRQ 17? Could this be it?

"10.10.0.0/16 does the job after all."

Does the job of what - a firewall rule?  A summary route - those are really the only valid uses of such a CIDR.. Do you have 65k some hosts you need on the same network? ;)

Use a more appropriate CIDR would be my suggestion.. Say a /24 or /23 if you have a lot of hosts..

You can have two dhcp pools but you cannot tell this client should select from pool A and this client should select from pool B. So all the clients you want to be in pool B give them fixed ip. But remember if any other client which was suppose to get dhcp address from Pool A, fix his ip to pool B then he'll be allowed.

So to avoid this you should either use Managed switch or go for vlan.

If you have all wireless devices, then setting up vlans is quite simple. Only thing then required will be device which can tag the clients. Most of the APs now a days come vlan tagging facility.

If you have desktops then you have to invest in managed switch.

I can help you setup vlans, incase you decide to do so.

They are stored in the xml… You could do a backup, and then pull them out and then reload them on a new system via edit of xml and restore.  I do not see a specific for just backup of them..  But with a bit of manipulation you could do it that way..

How many do you have to move?  You can also just export them in the cert manager and then import them into your new system.  That is how I did the few certs I wanted to move over from my old system when I got my sg4860.. I wanted to save my CA since had certs deployed that it had signed, etc.

Hi,

Enter console mode. Option 8.
Enter :

ls -al /usr/local/sbin/ntpd

You should see :

-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  692424 Oct  9 00:12 /usr/local/sbin/ntpd

This program, the time deamon, is part of a basic FreeBSD/pfSense setup. It isn't possible that it isn't there.

I really advise you to do a clean install.

True, the "Watchdog"  isn't very smart neither, trying to (re) start a program that isn't there.

Not being able to check for updates could be the proof of other missing system files - or just a broken DNS setup. Don't spend more time, wipe it clean ;)

Hi,

What are you captive portal settings ?

What is the captive portal status pages showing ?

What does the captive portal log tels us ?

I would do a clean install and then restore from your backup.

Hi,

The device you use to connect to pfSEnse, did it get an IP from the DHCP server running on pfSense ?

Linux normally uses PMTUD to set packet size.  Do you see the ICMP "too big" messages?  I'm not sure about IPSec settings, as I haven't used IPSec with pfSense.  The MSS is normally used when setting up a TCP connection to tell the other end the maximum supported packet size.  It has nothing to do with any router, including pfSense.  It is PMTUD that's used to determine the maximum packet size that will fit the smallest MTU along the path.
