    @calvin:

    so many thanks for replys, here I am planning to using pfsense to distributing internet connection in a building, i need firewall and trafic shaper
    (is important have traffic shaper to control p2p connection), the reaim is a solution to enable sound conversation in msn messenger, or I am
    wrong ?

    You are most likely correct but this is a linux specific program.  pfSense is not linux.

    I'm using IE 6.0 or Maxton. I will try with firefox at the next update. It would not be strange that the problem comes from IE ;-)

    It probably has something to do with your ata speed and whether you are using a 40 or 80 ping cable…. unless this is CF.

    These are inofficial builds though they should work. Give it a try. The person who builds these images is from Hacom, a company that offers Firewallhardware ( http://shopping.hacom.net/catalog/ ) and that was one of the first who donated hardware to develop pfSense on. Hacom is one of our recommended Vendors ( http://pfsense.com/index.php?id=40 ).

  • Bridge + trunking in/out + mac learning problem

    Update for those that might be trying to impliment the same thing i am doing.

    Essentialy i am trying to put 2 pfsesne boxes between my core routers and my edge switches with backup links going around the firewal for redundancy.
    I've upgraded my config from beta 2 ta 3.

    Thank god ftp is fixed that was a huge issue thankx guys.

    I've upgraded my in and out nics from 100mb to fiber 1gig cards, and changed the config accordingly.

    After a few hours of troubleshooting loop issues and up down interfaces i finnaly was able to get 4 vlans trunked together across my fiber link passing 4-5 megs with about 15-20 physical machines.

    Of course like sullrich said, the mac entries are still being broadcasted across all vlans with no fix in sight (might actually look at freebsd code to see if i can make a quick fix) but now i also have the spanning tree packets beign blocked as well.

    If i shut filtered bridge off all 4 vlans go into stp disabled status for recieving ther other 4 vlan's stp packets.if i enable the filtered bridge all works but not stp packets pass at all.Apparently the bridge does not know after recieving these packets where to send them on the other side.

    This wouldn't be that much of a problem being the bridge on the firewall itself has stp enabled, but being i want to place this inline with my core and edge switches i can not run a secondary (non firewalled) connection to my switches without creating 2 links on the same vlan in stp forward status (IE loop). Its either one link or the other.

    So it boils down to this.

    You can have 2 pfsense boxes on one switch, you can even have them on multible switches with the redundancy u want. But if you run a trunk of more than 2 vlans (1 natvie and 1 non native) across the firewall stp and mac entries will be screwed to high heaven causing extensive cpu load from learning mac entries over and over again(depending on how many machines u have, i got a few hundred) and possible stp loops even when enabled.

    From what i am seeing on google and freebsd boards, this is a limitation of the kernel and not pfsense so no complaints here, but thought i'd give you guys a heads up.

    Any suggestions would be apreciated. Anyone curious and want more details about my setup feel free to ask.

    Go to diagnostics>edit file. Then open "/conf/config.xml". Edit it, copy, paste or whatever you like and save. If the box has booted up with the configuration on the stick it already is mounted for use.

    Ok, thanks.

    I'll try a temporary configuration with an unused routable C class to test all this before using it for real. Maybe when I'll be ready for that, the 1.0 final will be out  ;D
