What is the biggest attack in GBPS you stopped
-
Firewall stopped routing traffic. Link was fine.
Lots of packetloss once again.
-
So same issue as before, firewall is the weakest link, not the bandwidth? Maybe 2.3.
Any news from the FreeBSD side of things?
-
Not yet. They are digesting the attack that I did yesterday and curretnly looking at states not beeing freed as they should…. AFAIK.
-
Did this end up in nowhere with the issue still being there?
-
Still working on it.

Does this need to be included in 2.2.4 before it is released?
-
That would be a very good idea if possible!
Opnsense has this fix done allready and a full release on friday.
-
Do they have snapshot that you could test?
-
Waiting for the update to come. I will update and report back.

You beat me to it. This thread is the first thing I thought about when I saw this in G+

Supermule, is this directly related to what you've been digging into?
-
Could very well be.
-
So you haven't tested it? It's more of a definite maybe that this resolves the issue?

I suppose another question to ask, is how did we miss this on our own machines, and what can we do to avoid such problems from occurring again?
-
Supermule didn't miss it. Well, possibly. If it turns out to be the same issue.
-
Spotted the behavior but nothing outputted from pfsense to observe though.

Because it's not a pfSense issue. This is an FreeBSD network driver issue.
-
So there is nothing we can do then as this is just like a HW failure of sorts then?
