Since not everyone can attend to this Conference will there be a
recording of this session? I use pf not so much on a daily basis but I
would like to get more insight too ;)
And I admit I'm more the visual guy

Hi,
I thought I'd like to give you a heads up that there will be a "PF and
networking" tutorial at BSDCan 2017 in Ottawa this June.
The session will however not be the Nth rerun of the old one, we're
starting from scratch this time, and were looking for input on what to
include.
Do you have questions on PF and related matters, or are there specific
topics you would like to see covered?
We want to hear from you, either contact us directly at the reply-to
address use the list.
Queueing. Prioritization. Throttling.
Hi Peter, misc@,
I would second the coherent practical examples in: queues, priorities,
bandwidth caps, normalisation & reordering to have quality of service.
And all required steps to achieve an advanced fully functional feature
full typical home, office, lab, ISP, enterprise, etc setups iterative,
each time incrementally enhancing the previous set of tricks and skill
one game at a time, much more a practical hands on approach to the PF.
Including performing common tasks of monitoring, maintenance, upgrade,
conflict resolve, capturing, post processing, sanitation, enhancement.
My personal interests have always been practical application examples,
especially these extending the previous ones in a connected structure.
From the default rule set after installation, through getting Internet
working, and then fixing most common pitfalls of poor packet scheduler
practices (or lack of) in (dumb) broadband equipment.. through solving
all aspects to realisation of complete deployments, as YOU learned it.
The PF features got implemented over time, to solve real actual needs.
The typical new user begins with small common tasks up to their needs.
The full example shows a complete configuration addressing most needs.
The best tutorials give a practical approach to fulfil the real needs.
I dream of a revised PF and networking tutorial from sketch to artist.
Thank you ALL for the hard work over the years to complement OpenBSD..
Kind regards,
Anton Lazarov
I have hard time configuring these since years now. The fact (or is
it rumour?) that prio works only when physical interface bandwidth is
saturated couldn't be read in manpages, pf faq, or other 'official'
docs, I heard about it by chance:
[https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=145261341431381&w=2]
I still haven't found a way to throttle down queues to desired values
without using fixed min and max values. Adding NAT to the mix
complicates things further. What about queueing of traffic inside GRE
tunnels in transport mode protected with IPSEC? Where to read about it?
Optimistic me believes that devs are too busy making stuff work and
have no time to explain it to us poor admins (by means of manpages,
faqs or howtos). But how can I know how to use it if I can't read about
it anywhere?
Pessimistic me starts to notice that less and less free knowledge can be
found around the 'net. If I want answers to my questions, is the
best way to start saving money for paying OpenBSD consultants hourly
rates for tuition?
If there's any way I could help, don't hesitate to contact me.
