      Would be nice to verify if it should be logged as a bug.

                @maartenhendrix hi thanks but i don't quite understand what the suggestion is. i tried to update pimd and it all seems up to date. i disabled the service and rebooted and when it came back up re-enabled the service but pimd still doesnt start. is that what is being suggested? cheers!

                    ok, thanks. i made some progress based on your info. there's some other issues but i've worked around them. on 2.4.3 i was able to have the default action as to bind to all interfaces and then disable WAN and any others you don't want PIMD running on. this won't work on 2.5 but reversing the logic and restarting after every config change gets it working. cheers!

                      A couple of month ago, I finally managed to get multicast working on 2.4.5 with the 'new' PIMD package (despite a lot of effort I never managed to get IGMP-proxy working).

                      However, than ...

                      1. I did a try to migrate to 2.5.0, that did not work at all due to a problem after reboot (see another post), but I also noticed that PIMD was not longer working ☹
                      2. so I switched back to 2.4.5 (PIMD working again). However ...... then I made a config change splitting a LAGG in two normal interfaces. That should not affect PIMD, I would say, but it did. Even worse I do not managed to get PIMD working again still using 2.4.5 ☹

                      My strong impression is that there issues below the (free bsd?) surface affecting PIMD in both 2.4.5. and 2.5.0. !!

                      There are a couple of lines in the logging which are ..... let's say strange. Note I use "bind to none" as default! Here log messages during startup (read bottom up).

                      • and then the result, nu vifs, so no working PIMD

                      Jun 1 14:01:50 pimd[89238]: Cannot forward: no enabled vifs

                      • and here the windows invented "169.254.0.1" address range .......

                      • the groups below are probably OK

                      • below a strange message "Invalid phyint address" (that are working interfaces of course)

                      • The vifs are not present above, which is logical, I did not select those interfaces, (but even doing so does not lead to an OK situation)

                      Whatever things are .... not yet running as it should ...... and I desperately would like to have a running PIMD (for my media server).

                      Hope that this info helps the developers to further investigate (and solve) the problem!

                      Sincerely,

                      Louis

                        Hello,

                        The more I am trying to get pimd running, the more I am wondering it the FreeBSD setup is correct! Note that I am not a FreeBSD expert, and I am also not aware of NetGate's low level settings. But I do have some doubts e.g. related to:

                        • some where there should be ^ip_mroute_load="yes"^ (loader.conf ??)
                        • And the multicast interface flag is not set by default .....
                          so in the interface setup there should be things like
                          ^sudo ip link set ix0 multicast on^ and
                          ^sudo ip link set ix1 multicast on^

                        Perhaps other config issues too ....

                        Louis

                          From the Diagnostics / Command Prompt menu, I used ^ifconfig^

                          The output is among other things.

                          So, my verdict in the previous mail was probably not correct.

                          No idea what is wrong, one thing is for sure .... it does not work ☹

                            Hello,

                            I just discoverd that when I replace the interface names in /var/etc/pimdpimd.conf with the corresponding IP-addresses, a couple of error messages disappear.

                            However the issue that not all (vlan)interfaces have vifs stay, and at the end of the startup PIMD is still not running due to "Cannot forward: no enabled vifs"

                            also note that i am missing ^mrouting^ and my feelings are not changes since I created bug #9631 a year ago.
