For all of you that are running the new shaper with multiple interfaces there is a bug that will prevent it from working correctly.
Please see http://cvstrac.pfsense.org/chngview?cn=23485 and make the change manually for now until a new update is released to you.

I have tried the new filter.inc. but there is an error when loading pfsense. Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_configured_interface_with_descr() in /etc/inc/filter.inc on line 431. any ideas? :)

Just change the lines i have sent in the link above.

What you have done is taking the filter.inc from RELENG_1(aka 1.3), DO NOT DO THAT.
RELENG_1 is way changed from RELENG_1_2.

hello ermal , oh i see. I just want to make sure if what i did is correct. this is what i have in line 2170. so i have to delete this 4 lines?

let out anything from the firewall host itself and decrypted IPsec traffic

pass out on $lan proto icmp keep state label "let out anything from firewall host itself"
pass out on $wan proto icmp keep state label "let out anything from firewall host itself"
pass out on $wanif all keep state label "let out anything from firewall host itself"

and add this 3 lines ?

let out anything from the firewall host itself and decrypted IPsec traffic

pass out on {$oc['if']} proto icmp keep state label "let out anything from firewall host itself"
pass out on {$oc['if']} all keep state label "let out anything from firewall host itself"

is this correct?

Just replace the file in /etc/inc/filter.inc with the content from this LINK and you should be ok.

Otherwise you just need to delete this 2 lines:
pass quick on {$oc['if']} proto icmp keep state label "let out anything from firewall host itself"
pass quick on {$oc['if']} all keep state label "let out anything from firewall host itself"

and make them

pass out on {$oc['if']} proto icmp keep state label "let out anything from firewall host itself"
pass out on {$oc['if']} all keep state label "let out anything from firewall host itself"

Whichever your prefer.

venis_LA

i want access to the new shaper .. thanks

Well you can send the offerings at ermal.luci@gmail.com and i will give you the link to the new shaper.

ermal, would the new traffic shaper allow you to distribute evenly bandwidth to the active workstations. example i have 2mb bandwidth. first workstation 1 download a file so it gets the 2mb. after minute workstation 2 start download another file so workstation 1 gets 1mb and workstation 2 gets 1mb. is this possible with the new traffic shaper?

chris

eri--

yes, just use CBQ discipline and it will setup you up for that.

ccfiel
