MLPPP not working - Multilink is not Negociated by MPD5 - PPPOE Changes

cmb

Why are you putting a custom mpd conf in place? On 2.2.5 the auto-generated config should be fine. It's fine on earlier versions too, though the bug doktornotor linked would break it if you saved interface changes.

jacobhuh

It was easier (faster/convenient) to modify the .conf file to debug. Going through the interface also limits the arguments you can put into the file. Either way no success, it should work and it did work. The Mikrotik 750 works fine, but I hate it as there are limitations for what you can do with OpenVPN. Also not as pretty as my PFSENSE Box both on in the inside and out ;)

This is driving me nuts. If I had more of an understanding as to why it is failing, I can endorse the issue back to my ISP, but as the Mikrotik works, they are blaming PFSENSE. I have limited knowledge with MPD5 and its workings.

BTW, there are other users with this problem using the latest iteration of PFSENSE for MLPPP. That is on my side of the fence up here in Western Canada.

jacobhuh

If you look at when MPD5 is called to Bundle the links together the second line is rejected as there is an error stating that the second "link did not validate in bundle". The logs are not verbose enough to find out what part of the link did not validate? Authentication looks fine, MTU/MRRU/MRU doesn't show issues, could it be that the second connection is trying to bond too early as IP Address has not negociated with the First link yet? Anyways, after the IP Address negotiates and resolves every subsequent retry is denied with a Message of "MESG: duplicate address detected". Another administrator indicates that it is PFSENSE that is throwing the messages and rejects the link?

Anyone have any suggestions or know who's door I can knock on? My only other option is the run the Mikrotik to resolve the MLPPP VDSL connection and then setup a 1:1 NAT so that I can still use PFSENSE as the serverside router to my internal network. I've been told for the most part OpenVPN will not have a problem (I run a Server with four clients for a distributed LAN).

While you are messing with configuration in shell in unknown ways, you really won't get any meaningful support here. As already noted, it will get overwritten plus is completely undesired.

@doktornotor:

While you are messing with configuration in shell in unknown ways, you really won't get any meaningful support here.

That was the point I was trying to get at earlier. Right now this is more a "please debug my custom mpd.conf", which isn't going to get much attention.

Go back to what the system generates on its own, and post your PPP logs. That I'm happy to help with.

chpalmer

I have a site connected via MLPPP running the latest snaps and things are fine. Nothing custom needed.

jacobhuh

It was essentially a copy of the auto generated one. I will post the auto generated one, but same result in the logs. How can one get verbose logs utilizing the auto generated config, we will start there.

jacobhuh

Alright here is the log from the PFSENSE 2.2.5 (Snapshot from updating yesterday), running on a standard MLPPP PPPOE setup with two VDSL 50/10 links (Zyxel Modems setup in Bridge). The modems are setup on two adapters EM1 and EM2 which are setup in the Interface Page under the Tab in a PPPs and assigned the identifier PPPOE0(em1, em2). WAN is assigned the PPPOE0 and all the necessary details are setup. (I can provide screenshots if needed). The error is the same. Does anyone have a clue as to what could be the issue?

Again it works with other MLPPP routers such as the Mikrotik 750, but I really really do not want to use it.

Had you run into this thread- https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=36966.0 ??

jacobhuh

Yeah,
If you refer to one of the member "Clarknova" he's local here to me and he has had the same problem!! He posted to our ISP's forum and same thing they are blaming PFSENSE for having the issue.

Jacob

jacobhuh

Has anyone else seen this same? There is something definitely wrong with PFSense or MPD5. My MLPPP connection works with a Mikrotik 750, but is a no go with PFSENSE (both Stable and Current)

Jacob

chpalmer

My MLPPP connection works fine.

The remote end rejects the multilink parameters on both links, so multilink has not been negotiated and the two links cannot be joined.

In 'Advanced Options' check 'Disable shortseq'. Does it work now?

jacobhuh

No unfortunately not at all. Same problem.

David_W

As disabling shortseq hasn't solved the problem, I'd try a lower MRRU (you need to press the 'Advanced Options' button for that setting). The remote end is requesting an MRU of 1460, so I'd start by trying an MRRU of 1454 (which allows for the 6 byte multilink overhead). If that doesn't work, try an even lower MRRU - maybe try 1400.

If you find a working MRRU, start increasing MRRU until it fails, then use the highest setting that works. At that point, re-enable shortseq and see if things continue to work.

This is likely to involve finding working settings by trial and error unless you can get any hints from the ISP or from the logs of a system that successfully negotiates multilink with your ISP.
