Problems defining VLAN interfaces on LAGG ports [RESOLVED]

hardtarget

Hello,

I was doing some testing with 2.0 BETA4 (i386), and noticed that I could quite easily define a LAGG group (using FEC as the protocol). However, I want to then define multiple VLANs off of that LAGG group, but when I went to VLANs and clicked '+', it did not list my LAGG group.

After poking around for a while, it looks like inside get_nics_with_capabilities(), there's a call to pfSense_get_interface_addresses(), which doesn't appear to be returning 'lagg' (I haven't yet had a chance to look at pfSense_get_interface_addresses() yet to see what it's actually doing). So, I just added an entry to the vlan_native_supp array for 'lagg', and was able to then use VLANs on the lagg interface group I had defined without any problems.

Obviously, this is a hack and not recommended, but I was wondering if we could get a more official fix somehow?

How old of a snapshot are you using?

I added vlans on a lagg interface quite recently and it worked fine.

I am currently using the 12/15/2010 build for i386. It doesn't list the LAGG ports on the VLAN page as a selectable interface for me.

Can you please show an ifconfig output?

Can you please show an ifconfig output?

Here you go (the current set of lagg0_vlan{N} entries were added manually by my hacking):

Can you please run this under Diagnostic->Command Promt php section:

require_once("globals.inc");

var_dump(get_nics_with_capabilities("vlanmtu"));

?>

hardtarget

Here's the output with my hacks removed:


array(2) {
  [0]=>
  string(2) "em"
  [1]=>
  string(3) "fxp"
}

Can you give me some kind of remote access to verify?!

It works for me locally so i have to look in your environment.

cmb

I can replicate that, it's only an issue with FEC. http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/1123

Can you please try latest snapshots it should work ok now.

hardtarget

Yup, looks like 2.0-BETA4 from 12/23/2010 does indeed fix the problem. Thanks!
