How to change RRD Quality IP?

I had the same problem, I have to change the IP of the gateway of rrdgraoh.
But my gateway is pingable.
Does rrd use a false gateway ?

hoba

It uses the wan gateway by default.

But my default gateway is pingable, I hate to copy/paste my wan gateway in config.xml else the rrd graph quality is red all the time.

Update to the most recent RELENG_1 snaphot. I fixed a bug regarding something similar this weekend that most likely affects this.

I already have the latest snapshot 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-01-24-2007

Gitsum

Yeah, me to. Using latest snapshot.
I added the use_rrd_gateway with a pingable address, but it still doesn't work.

Show us the xml.

Click save on the Interfaces -> WAN screen and see if it fixes it.

RRD needs to be instructed to recreate its info

Gitsum

Nope. Even after restart, it's still showing 100% loss.

sullrich

Run this from a shell.

cat /var/db/rrd/updaterrd.sh | grep out_wan | grep ping

Does your WAN IP gateway appear correctly?

Gitsum

yes, it does.

Gitsum

So, since my WAN gateway seems to be pingable, what would be causing the RRD quality graph to not function properly?

hoba

There seems to be a bug in the latest version that maybe is causing this issues: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,3514.0.html

I suppose the issue is solved, isn't it?

I still get 100% loss even though I'm using an rrd_gateway in the config.xml which is pingable.

cat /var/db/rrd/updaterrd.sh | grep out_wan | grep pin
shows the ISP gateway instead of what I entered. I saved on Interfaces|WAN and rebooted but without luck. Any ideas?

For the records: I am on 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-03-27-2007 built on Tue Apr 3 07:30:15 EDT 2007

Did you remove /tmp/config.cache after updating config.xml? If not then your manual changes where lost.

Well, no.
I edited config.xml (without package infos) on a WS and restored the configuratiion through the webGUI. Shouldn't that do the trick? After the automatic reboot the new IP is still there but not used…

sullrich

Yes that should do the trick. I imagine you added the IP to the wrong location.

The setting goes in the wan xml area.

Isn't it stored under <system>any longer?

I followed your instructions. Sorry if they this is outdated…

Does it matter where exactly it goes here? I would insert it right after the <if>tags… ???
