      OPT6-OPT13 (vlans on em0) – mlppp WAN + static (modem subnets)

      @gnhb:

      Are you using OPTX interface(s) for modem management?

      Yes. I have no choice because said interfaces are vlan interfaces, and they aren't eligible for inclusion in the mlppp bundle without first assigning them IP info and activating them.

      I just committed an update that will prevent detachment of netgraph nodes on interfaces that are used by PPPoE and also configured as an OPTX interface (netgraph nodes are necessary on interfaces that are used by PPPoE/PPTP/L2TP/MLPPP)

      So if I understand you correctly your fix won't work for me because I'm using mlppp. Is that correct?

      I'll try your fix if you think there's a chance of it working, or I can get you LAN access to this install if you want to investigate some. The biggest inconvenience there is that it would have to be between midnight and 7 am MST, as I have a lot of daytime users.

        In future posts, everyone please state if you have configured the same physical interface for both PPPoE/MLPPP/PPTP/L2TP (WAN) and OPTx(static/dynamic) (e.g. for modem management.)

        To clear it up:

        XL0 is my PPPOE-interface.
        So i assigned that same interface xl0 as OPT-interface. Thats what i was speaking about and what i understood which created the problem. If that is wrong, excuse me. Maybe i was not clear enough too.
        Due to the fact that i don't use the same interface for other things as PPPOE may be that simple assigning is only the half of the problem. The other half could be an assigned vlan to the same physical interface, right?

          No, the fix should work for you and everyone else with this problem. :)

          @_igor_: Okay, I mis-understood your last post . . .

                mlppp on vlans
                vlans configured for modem access

                No change here, still have to manually connect.

                  I bet the code is still detaching netgraph from the parent interface of the VLANs in your case, and the current fixes just got it one level closer.

                  The code probably needs to take even more things into account, because in theory someone could have:

                  pppoe0 on lagg0_vlan1 on lagg0 on em0, etc, etc. It needs to walk all the way back until it hits a real physical interface.

                      Just updated to the latest snap and "my" problem of this thread is gone! Hooray ;-)
                      I have vr0 set as OPT for modem access and as a PPPoE interface.
                      Updated to latest snap, rebooted and everything worked fine. This includes all my package updates! Yeah!

                        Your right on both counts. :) This is a pain IMO . . .

                        Maybe we should consider the reverse strategy, which is to allow netgraph to attach every node by default and detach ones where the node adversely effects interface performance. Is that feasible? Is there a way to identify such interfaces easily?

                        I'm curious about the motivation for the change to detaching the nodes. Did some customer or user experience some performance increase due to detaching the netgraph nodes?

                          Ermal would be the one to know for sure. He says detaching netgraph from interfaces that don't need it improves performance a bit. I'm not sure if anyone has run the numbers, but the way it is now we've outpaced a $40k checkpoint firewall :-)

                            New stuff committed to try to address clarknova's config. I think is might still use some work. As before, I can't test with PPPoE right now so it might not work.

                                  I have no problem with my PPPoE DSL WAN link connecting, using the latest snapshots and having an OPTx interface configured for managing my DSL modem.  Thank you! ;D

                                    Oh boy this is soooo annoying. With the latest snap of today it is broken again. Box takes 'forever' to get connected via PPPoE…that is so lame and we are on RC status now. Why do things like this brake? I will stay on a 'stable' RC now and let some other guys do the testing. This is getting old...

                                      I do not think anybody touched that code.
                                      You sure its something you did or a pacakge did?

                                        It's the same behavior as before. After reboot there was no PPPoE connection. Now I installed one of my packages (nmap) and after that I get Error 500 - Internal Server Error again. Now I'll need to reboot, install avahi and then do another reboot before everything works again…sigh...

                                            It may have been Efonne's attempt to fix the ro/rw filesystem status at boot time, if you're on nanobsd and hitting this.
