The graphs are fine for me, but it's broken in other ways:

[fresh install 1.2.3rc1, freshBSD and pfSense newbie, replacing ipCop]

My main reason for trying pfSense is to improve VOIP response wrt bittorrent traffic. I spent a few days reading all the old posts, calomel.org, etc, but nothing I did would put any traffic into qVOIPup. Being a newbie, I was sure I screwed up, but looking at the /tmp/rules.debug, everything looked OK.

Frustrated, I downgraded to 1.2.2, and bingo, traffic is showing up in qVOIPup, with zero config changes. I'll be happy to help debug this; to this newb though the diff between 1.2.2 and 1.2.3rc1 rules.debug look pretty innocuous.

Oh, and pftop is broken wrt the queue view. I read that 'pkg_add -r pftop' would fix that, but it didn't. In fact, it broke pftop completely, throwing a permission denied error. Google told me this was likely because the package I added was compiled for a different kernel than I was running. This was 1.2.3rc1; on 1.2.2 the queue view is still missing.

Charlie,

I'm running 1.2.3-RC1 built on Tue May 12 00:32:03 EDT 2009
I'm having the same issue with qVoIPUp not showing my VoIP traffic (qVoIPDown shows it fine). On my box, qwanacks is showing traffic that I believe is the qVoIPUp traffic. (Just somehow misidentified I guess?) I've run the Traffic Setup Wizard more than once and still get the same results. I'm open for any suggestions on what to do.

On 1.2.2 I had my queues displaying the traffic in the right spot. I might have to revert to 1.2.2 to fix it in the meantime.

P.S. pfSense is great!

Well, I just tested today's snapshot: FreeBSD 7.2, pfSense 1.2.3RC1 (2008-05-18), and I still get no traffic in qVOIPUp. Again, going back to 1.2.2 release works fine with the same configuration.

Also reported by another user here (although with ipsec): http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,15450.0.html

Let me know what info would help ….....
