Timeouts
-
Hello everybody,
My pfsense computer is up and running for a couple of days now and it works pretty fine… until
alot of timeouts smth like this:
fxp1: DNA timeout
fxp1: SMA timeout
device timeoutand so on it just keeps scrolling through the pfsense display.
fxp1 is the name of my LAN interface and when it starts no more internet for me.
I use the ctrl-c plus option 5 and reboot the pfsense computer that everything is ok
Any ideas?
-
Check the BIOS. Ensure that no IRQ sharing is happening.
Update the BIOS to the latest and greatest version.
-
and make sure plug and play OS is disabled in your BIOS.
-
it's kind of an old computer from compaq and the bios is very uncustomizable.
What's an IRQ?
BTW it happenned again, here's a pic

it's kind of an old computer from compaq and the bios is very uncustomizable.
I've seen a good deal of old Compaq hardware and don't recall any that didn't have plug and play OS settings, or possibly an OS setting. There should definitely be a BIOS update available, check Compaq's support site.
What's an IRQ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrupt_request
While devices should be able to share IRQ's without issues, it doesn't always work that way. If you change what PCI slots the NIC's are in it might change the IRQ situation.
A full system log from after the system restarts might be helpful.
-
Have a look at http://<yourpfsenseip>/status.php . There is a dmesg outbut at the bottom of the page that will list your hardwareconfig. You should be able to see if something is sharing IRQs there.</yourpfsenseip>

Ok i noticed that if i dont wach the traffic graph all the time the timeout doesn't occur. Been like this for 2 days and 6,5 hours now.
BTW, here the DMESG:
(Any ideas?)

-
All nics and the usb controller share the same IRQ. Disable USB, you don't need it. You also can disable the parallelport and maybe some other components to get some free ressources. Also moving the nics around to different pci slots might help get rid of the interruptsharing.
-
it looks like you have pnp enabled in your bios. You should turn it off so the bios assigns ressources to your devices.
-
there are some hosts at your fxp1 subnet that have the same IP. This could be some teamed nics. If that is not the case you should find the conflict and resolve it.

OK, thanks for your advice, will do that the at the weekend maybe sooner.
About the NIC's. One of my Nic is integrated, so i doubt i could move it around and the other one is on a vertical add-on card which plugs into an old type of pci.
BTW, offtopic. Maybe you could give me some hints about last.fm It prety much doesn't work :) ?

- there are some hosts at your fxp1 subnet that have the same IP. This could be some teamed nics. If that is not the case you should find the conflict and resolve it.
I doubt if those are teamed NIC's in this case - usually that'll be two NIC's from the same vendor. These are two different vendors:
00:13:8f - Asiarock Incorporation
00:14:c2 - HPGintaras: I would look into this and see why you're seeing that IP switching between MAC's.
