hi

I am tryng to use the image pfSense-Full-Update-1.2-RELEASE-20080423-2126.tgz

I have 4 interfaces, of which 2 are LAN and 2 are WAN

whatever wizard I try, I get this error

You have less interfaces than number of connections!

I have tried giving it 4 interfaces, 2 connections,
2 interfaces, 2 connections,
2 interfaces, 4 connections

am I doing something wrong or is the wizard out of whack?

Perry

When i tried i could get paste that, but got errors in the end of multi wan/lan config.

Connection is WAN nic's, do you get the error right after that?

sai

I could not get any of the wizards to work. I even downloaded the iso and installed that. same problems.

which version are you using?

Can you please post the errors you are getting, so if any i will fix them.

I have some more fixes in the line so if you give me the messages you are getting i will check them too.

One other way i can recommend you doing this for now is:
Just choose 2 connection(it means internet connections) and 1 local interface
After the wizard go to the "By queue view" click the lan in the left
than click the buttons "clone/copy queue" button for each of the local interfaces

and you should have a setup running.

than click the buttons "clone/copy queue" button for each of the local interfaces

I can only copy to one of my lan nic's don't know if vlan's mess it up.

Ermal If you want to, i can open my firewall for you. just PM your IP.

Hmmm Perry i have found the issue.
It is just that the By interface queue builds the list of interfaces to show differently from the shaper code and uses a function of pfSense itself which seems to not show the vlan interfaces.
I will get to you and all the other with a fix soon.

when using traffic_shaper_wizard_multi_all.xml
I get these errors:

…cannot determine interface bandwidth for fxp1, specify an absolute bandwidthaltq not defined on fxp1 altq not defined on fxp1 /tmp/rules.debug:24: errors in queue definition altq not defined on fxp1 /tmp/rules.debug:25: errors in queue definition altq...

the fix is to select each interface (in the " By Interface " tab) and specify the bandwidth.

Questions!

[1] in the Floating Rules there is a Penalty Box rule, but it is at the top. the voip , p2p rules are below it.
The rule is:
Proto Source Port Destination Port Gateway Queue Schedule Description

- - - - qOthersLow Penalty Box

I specified a single ip address (from my LAN) for this in the Wizard, but the ip address does not appear in the rule. should I put the ip address in the source or in the destination?

[2] how does this shaper interact with the load balancer?

eri--

[1] the rules produced by the wizard are latest match ones. Meaning the latest match takes the action.
For the ip i will take a look at all the things i am fixing in the wizards!

[2] It is all transparent it means that if you have load balancing active the rules will convert to conform to it automatically when they reload.
