Pfsense not responding to large packet pings
-
@johnpoz said in Pfsense not responding to large packet pings:
but causing a problem by sending large pings to pfsense is prob not related to the problem..
...though I would expect it to work with arbitrarily sized packets. I have never tried 64K though. Until now.
[2.5.2-RELEASE][admin@t70.stevew.lan]/root: ping -s 65500 172.21.16.246 PING 172.21.16.246 (172.21.16.246): 65500 data bytes 65508 bytes from 172.21.16.246: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=1.942 ms 65508 bytes from 172.21.16.246: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.825 ms 65508 bytes from 172.21.16.246: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=1.878 ms 65508 bytes from 172.21.16.246: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=1.764 ms ^C --- 172.21.16.246 ping statistics --- 4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0.0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 1.764/1.852/1.942/0.066 ms
A similar test to another device in my network fails:
[2.5.2-RELEASE][admin@t70.stevew.lan]/root: ping -s 2000 172.21.16.185 PING 172.21.16.185 (172.21.16.185): 2000 data bytes ^C --- 172.21.16.185 ping statistics --- 2 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss
The difference there is that 172.21.16.185 is behind a PoS TP-Link switch which doesn't pass packet fragments. Because.... no clue!
But bad switches aside it should work.

What kind of shit switch? Yeah that belongs in the trash!
So what I have been able to duplicate.. Is if I try it "through" pfsense it fails.. But if on the same L2 network then works

Same one that loves VLAN 1.
Yeah, needs recycling!
Just for reference here's two 3100s on different subnets routed through a 2.5.2 box:

That's also through some VLANs over a LAGG just for fun.

Odd so through pfsense seems largest I can get is 34276

problem is I think if you loose like 1 packet - you run into problem where they all have to be transmitted again..

That's between local subnets? The ping time is very high compared with what I'm seeing at double the packet size. So presumably twice the number of fragments.
Unable to replicate here.
-
@stephenw10 yeah that is between 2 local segments..
Its to a pi, so the pi might have some issues with reassembly that is slowing up the response?
I do see sub ms response normal sized pings

ping -l 65500 192.168.2.2
Where 192.168.2.2 is an ancient Linksys E1200 access point, cabled up with 100 Mb - not 1 Gb.
This device is 10,12 years old.I ping from 192.168.1.15, a windows 10 on LAN, through pfSense, to the other network 192.168.2.0.
From 192.168.2.2Ā : bytes=65500 time=15 ms TTL=63
"15 ms" probably because the10x slower "192.168.2.x network.
Windows - the ping command, doesn't allow me to use values above "65500".
-
Well this sure seems like a crazy rabbit hole to have gone down ;) hehehe
So my 2 pis can ping each other at 65500, but neither can ping pfsense interface on that same network.. But my PC can ping pfsense on my lan can ping just fine at 65500
but a vm I have on a different vlan can ping pfsense IP on its vlan just fine with 65500..
Yeah this is a crazy rabbit hole ;)

Ha, indeed! 64K packets.... who knew.

@gertjan said in Pfsense not responding to large packet pings:
Jumbo frame cram out that extra zero dot x % speed gain.
Actually, it's due to the way switches handle the data. Switch specs talk about frames, not bits, as it takes them just as much effort to handle a small frame as a big one. The buffer receives the data, triggers the switch to move it and sends it to the appropriate port and it does this an entire frame at a time. So, the bigger the frame, the more data is handled each time.

Your favourite, TP-Link.

@johnpoz said in Pfsense not responding to large packet pings:

That depends on the software. TCP can recover from missing pieces, without starting from the beginning of a packet. However, it depends on the particular version. I don't know that UDP or ICMP can recover.

@gertjan said in Pfsense not responding to large packet pings:
Windows - the ping command, doesn't allow me to use values above "65500"
That's because 65K is the maximum packet size. So, that would be 65536 less overhead.
-
Well, that is the maximum allowed for IP.

Good morning guys.
I'm so sorry for sending you all down the rabbit hole :-DWell I tried some things in the weekend too...
-Upgraded to 2.5.2
-Tried unchecking the "disable hardware offload" options.
-Disabled suricata and pfBlockerNG
-Pinging various other devices in different directionsBasically, nothing helps. It's only pfSense I have a problem with. All other devices can ping 65500 in any direction with almost zero latency.
It's connected with 2 glass fibre cables (sorry I stated this wrong before).
1 glass fibre from the ISP and the other glass fibre going to a 10gb/s switch.Even just trying to send a large ping packet to the directly-connected switch, over fibre, is impossible. Works up to about 20,000 which give a (broken) response in about 1.8 seconds (not milliseconds!). Above 20k it just fails.
I can ping the pfsense from itself using it's own IP, which is successful (doesn't go out over the network I suppose).
I'm running all good hardware. The NIC is connected via direct passthrough from the VM Host to the pfSense box so the VM has complete control of it.
Something just isn't right though.
I'm not using Jumbo packets by the way, just 1500. I expect the switch the just fragment any large packets.
Anyone got anymore ideas?
Thanks

Your pfSense runs from a VM ?
So, for you the 'how many bytes per packet' is hard coded in the NIC device driver. And the VM "virtual" NIC driver.
The smallest wins, of course.My pfSense, 2.5.2 CE, a bare bone install, using a quad Intel NIC card, works fine.
@gemeenaapje said in Pfsense not responding to large packet pings:
I can ping the pfsense from itself using it's own IP
Aha : the local - for pfSense - NIC driver is used, the transport stays purely 'in software' to physical or VM rules don't apply. Again : go bare bone and you have your 'close to "65535"'.
@gemeenaapje said in Pfsense not responding to large packet pings:

Console ? SSH ?
This menu :

Press Enter an it shows up.
When you entered the 8 or Shell option just type "exit" + enter.

I'd still love to know why you're trying to send such huge packets. I've never seen anyone attempt that. Though I agree, I expect it to work.
Try looking atnetstat -s

Morning guys. Thanks again for the replies.
I am not using the VM NIC or drivers for them. I'm using the Linux drivers for the real card (see link above to information and specs).

Maybe it's a bad driver?
Not sure if the driver is loaded in VM Esxi or in pfSense now. I can't remember and I also don't know many linux commands. I think it might have been loaded in VM and the esxi passes the device through to the VM. -
