Do you have the IP alias entered once for the whole /29 subnet or do you have all of the addresses entered as individual virtual IPs? We had a similar issue when we switched from Verizon DSL to Verizon FIOS many years ago - the Virtual IPs had worked on the DSL when they had been defined as a group, but on the FIOS we were losing our connections about once an hour, exactly like you are seeing. We tried everything we could think of and then, in desperation, removed the Virtual IPs and re-added them one by one. That solved our problem, though nobody we spoke to at that time is really sure why. (As far as we can tell, this isn't a pfSense bug, because our other backup internet connection - a T1 line - works perfectly with the Virtual IPs defined all together in one rule.)
It could be worth a try. Moshe On Jun 10, 2015 3:19 AM, "Tiernan OToole" <[email protected]> wrote: > Good morning. > > I have an esx box running on the Hetzner network.
