      Hello o/

      I'm not sure into which subforum this fits, so I'm putting it here.

      My Situation:
      I installed pfSense on an "old" computer of mine. With a realtek onboard nic and I bought two aditional (cheap) NICs (D-Link DFE-528TX).
      Then I went ahead and installed and configured pfSense. I got the WAN interface working wit pppoe for my ADSL connection and I got the LAN1 working for my network with DHCP and everything. I left the OPT1 interface deactivated. I also added, after everything was working, the squid proxy, which is also working as expected.
      WAN and LAN1 are configured and working.
      Today I decided to activate OPT1. I set it up for a different IP and activated DHCP for the range on opt1.
      I also added a firewall rule that was basicaly allow any.

      The Problem:
      OPT1 is not working. It is shown as up and with the correct configuration in the webinterface and via ifconfig.
      When a cable is connected the card notices it. And I know that the nic and the cable i used are working.
      The connected client does not recieve anything from the dhcp. And after manual IP configuration on the client i cant ping the pfsense box from there either.

      The switch I connected to the pfsense box on OPT1 shows only the light for 10base on the port the pfsense box is connected not 100, though pfsense says it is operating with "100baseTX <full-duplex>".

        What version are you using?

        You have 3 interfaces as I understand

        What is your built in NIC configured for? WAN? LAN?
        and also you additional NICs, what are the configured for?

        You can try to diagnose the problem by going to "interfaces" and then the interface in question, then chose "speed and duplex" and try setting a different option, try playing with the 10baseT* stuff to see if you get connectivity.

            Where is the picture of the LAN interface Status screen?

              Do you see the DHCP requests in the pfSense log (Status -> System Logs, click on DHCP tab)?

              If not, do you see the DHCP requests in the firewall log? (Status -> System Logs, click on Firewall tab)

              f not, do you see the DHCP requests in a packet capture on OPT1?

                Thanks for the replys!

                I'm using 2.0.2-RELEASE (i386)

                The onboard NIC is a realtek chipset with gigabit ethernet. Thats used for LAN1.
                WAN is one of the two dlink nics (rl1).
                And OPT1 is supposed to be the second dlink nic (rl0).

                You can try to diagnose the problem by going to "interfaces" and then the interface in question, then chose "speed and duplex" and try setting a different option, try playing with the 10baseT* stuff to see if you get connectivity.

                I tried different settings there, still no conectivity in any way. However it now gets recognized by the switch as 100base. Even with the standard "autoselect" Option and 100baseTX <full-duplex>.

                try putting it in another pci slot

                Using a different pci slot did not help either.

                Where is the picture of the LAN interface Status screen?

                Do you see the DHCP requests in the pfSense log (Status -> System Logs, click on DHCP tab)?

                If not, do you see the DHCP requests in the firewall log? (Status -> System Logs, click on Firewall tab)

                f not, do you see the DHCP requests in a packet capture on OPT1?

                No, no and no.

                Aside from the standard:

                Jan 10 21:31:42	dhcpd: Listening on BPF/rl0/5c:d9:98:a7:6e:a7/192.168.0.0/24
Jan 10 21:31:42	dhcpd: Sending on BPF/rl0/5c:d9:98:a7:6e:a7/192.168.0.0/24

                and occasional:

                
Jan 10 21:52:10	OPT1	   192.168.2.1	   224.0.0.1	IGMP

                nothing on OPT1. The packet capture only records PPPoE packets on OPT1.

                What I noticed earlier after a reboot (when I did not yet had OPT1 activated) was that it switched both "rlX" interfaces and suddenly used the other NIC as WAN.
                That is why WAN is on rl1 and not on rl0. While PPPoE over WAN was still on rl0 it was working just as well as it does now over rl1.

                Sorry for my bad english :/</full-duplex>

                  PPPoE transmitted or received? That doesn't seem right.

                  @carlos456:

                  Why doesn't rl1 appear in the ifconfig output you posted earlier?

                  Perhaps when you added a card the new card became rl0 and the card previously in the system became rl1. (The unit number is assigned according to the order in which the devices are seen as the systems walks the PCI device tree. Hence adding a new device can easily cause existing devices to be renumbered.)

                  If you are expecting to serve DHCP requests on OPT1 you almost certainly shouldn't be seeing PPPoE traffic on OPT1. But packet capture generally put an interface into "promiscuous" mode which can cause the display of traffic a device would not normally receive. What do have connected to OPT1? Please provide a network diagram.

                  Note you can attach graphics to replies by clicking on the Additional Options link just below the reply composition box. (It is easier for the readers if they can see graphics "inline" rather than having to open a new web page.)

                    This is how the capture on OPT1 looks.
                    @wallabybob:

                    Why doesn't rl1 appear in the ifconfig output you posted earlier?

                    Perhaps when you added a card the new card became rl0 and the card previously in the system became rl1. (The unit number is assigned according to the order in which the devices are seen as the systems walks the PCI device tree. Hence adding a new device can easily cause existing devices to be renumbered.)

                    If you are expecting to serve DHCP requests on OPT1 you almost certainly shouldn't be seeing PPPoE traffic on OPT1. But packet capture generally put an interface into "promiscuous" mode which can cause the display of traffic a device would not normally receive. What do have connected to OPT1? Please provide a network diagram.

                    Note you can attach graphics to replies by clicking on the Additional Options link just below the reply composition box. (It is easier for the readers if they can see graphics "inline" rather than having to open a new web page.)

                    I assumed for the whole time that "rl1" became "pppoe0" when I setup the PPPoE connection for WAN!?
                    I just looked into "Interfaces >> Assign" and there it lists for WAN PPPOE0(rl0).
                    So if it is using "rl0" for pppoe0 (and therefor WAN) and also as OPT1 then really, where is rl1? :P

                    The Image shows how I want the "Network" to be. Nothing fancy.

                        Success!!! :D
                        Okay, after i just realized that WAN/PPPOE actually was on rl0 and not how I assumed the whole time on rl1.
                        I went looking for the now missing rl1 and could not find it in the system.  I then plugged the "rl1" nic back into the pci slot it has been in before and then it got detected again by pfsense.
                        So the only problems there really were, were that i am dumb :P and that something is wrong with one of my pci slots :/
                        WAN, LAN1 and OPT1 are now working as intended! :)

                        Thanks for all the help!!! <3
