Re: [pfSense-discussion] Routing

Ok as for the password recovery there is a "easy" an non config deleting way. On the cisco page there is a section for password recovery it outlines all the staps needed to recover the password without deleting the configuration ! You will need console access to the router though I have used it from 800 series till 10000 series routers so I know it works :) I will post the link later on I have to grab my laptop for it ;) J.

There was a falling out, and the guy bailed without giving the enable password on the Cisco. Although I could crack the password, all of the methods that I know usually blow away the configuration. And for whatever reason, they (the ISP) can get the configuration from the T-1 provider (probably because they have been lax in paying the bill). I agree that it would probably be better to use the cisco to handle the routing, but unless someone can tell me how to crack the enable password, that is not an option. K.

But what kind of routing issues are you getting from the link from the ISP as there might be a better solution resolved within the cisco as the Linux routing packages are notoriously instable and unreliable. I work allot with checkpoint firewalls at work and they have the zebra and gated solutions (depending on the version) and there are major issues with the dynamic routing on those. J. Kim C.

If I were to install quagga on to the pfsense box, would the box actually handle the routing through RIP and dymanically change the routing tables thus bypassing the problems on the ISP side or is that wasted effort on my part?
