      some other issue, my openvpn client account is connected but im not able to route through it at all, under status gateway keeps saying status as pending, i guess it has some issue related to ipv6 as my isp is totally ipv4 so basically i dont use ipv6 as of now

        the issue related to openvpn client is, earlier i had 2 entries under system->routing, one for wan and other for openvpn, both dynamic IP but after the upgrade, i see an extra one for openvpn client with ipv6 although i have set ipv6 config type to non for interface configured for openvpn as well as blocked ipv6 from system->advanced->networking and to be able to route packets through this tunnel i have to edit the openvpn ipv6 entry and set it to disale monitoring then only will i be able to route through the tunnel and also the routing entry for openvpn ipv4, i have set monitoring ip but under status->gateway it keeps showing status as pending, it actually doesnt monitor

          the other issue which few others mentioned about slowness, its true and the web gui seems to work very slow compared to older versions as well as i noticed that when u issue some command through the serial console and at the same time u save or edit something on the web gui, both seem to freeze untill the web gui command has completed after which only the serial console will complete its task. im on the nanobsd on alix box

            DSCP issue seems to be a bug - will need some research but I am able to replicate it here

            NanoBSD slowness is a known issue, it only happens to certain CF cards, others are fast.

            Not sure why OpenVPN wouldn't be routing - that wouldn't have anything to do with the gateways under System > Routing for typical VPN usage. Even if it were being used in a Gateway Group it should still get used, iirc.

            The IPv6 gateway is automatic, and not hurting anything, safe to ignore.

              DSCP issue meaning that cron package or status-> gateway issue?

              the openvpn created gateway keeps showing pending, even same for the ipv6 entry it creates and openvpn doesnt work due to that untill i set the ipv6 entry to disable monitoring, once done openvpn starts working but the ipv4 entry still keeps showing pending under gateway monitoring, in v2.0.1 the monitoring worked perfectly fine

                    also my openvpn client tunnel says this, so is there any way to disable ipv6 for openvpn client config?

                      @xbipin:

                      DSCP issue meaning that cron package or status-> gateway issue?

                      DSCP meaning the filter reload error.

                      Cron failure was probably due to the filter reload erorr or some other connectivity issue. Any test I've performed upgrading with packages was OK.

                      @xbipin:

                      The gateway entries there have -zero- to do with OpenVPN's internal routing, unless you have misconfigured something.

                      can u recommend which CF card works fast so i can get that, already have 3 but is slow on all of them

                      The only one I remember at the moment is that Sandisk 30MB/s 200x card was fast (4s to remount ro), but a Kingston 133x card was slow (45s to remount ro). See http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/2401

                      @xbipin:

                      also under status->system log->system->gateways i get a flood of this constantly

                      Those aren't the real issue, check the main system log. Something must be restarting the gateway monitoring at those times.

                      That harmless.

                        system log doesnt showing anything restarting it, but let me reboot and see.

                        that ipv6 config for openvpn, is there some way to disable it completely even though its harmless

                        config wise its all standard and all was working fine on 2.0.1, i simply upgraded to 2.1, the openvpn config also i read on pfsense forum and configured it as mentioned and worked flawless till now, do u want my config files for both versions?

                                the gateway monitor showing pending, i sorted this out, actually the migration from 2.0.1 to 2.1 has some issue with the config so i went to routing and deleted the routes and readded them and set a monitoring ip and now gateway monitors fine, some error i saw in system log were as below
