pppoe connection freezes
I have CenturyLink DSL, and I use the user-space ppp program in FreeBSD 9.1 to make the PPPoE connection. From time to time (every few days) the connection freezes up—no more data can be sent or received. No error shows up in ppp.log; all I can see there is that there are no more RecvEchoRequest and SendEchoReply entries after the connection freezes. If I send SIGINT to the ppp program, it reconnects just fine. I talked to CenturyLink's tech support, and they said that one of the times that I had a problem, the connection was dropped on their end, but the others it was fine. My ppp command line is ppp -nat -ddial centurylink My ppp.conf: default: set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command disable ipv6cp centurylink: set device PPPoE:rl0 enable lqr set authname balholmand...@qwest.net set authkey set dial set login add default HISADDR Is there a setting I can add to ppp.conf to make it detect when the connection freezes? Or is there something else that I need to fix?

Re: pppoe configuration and dns name resolution
Hi This time I configured as simple as possible with minimal settings, and voila things worked. I successfully connected to internet in both cases - DHCP server disabled in adsl modem, and DHCP server enabled in adsl modem. Thanks all of you guys for helping. :) Here are config files: ## /etc/rc.config hostname="jacks_lappy" ifconfig_fxp0="DHCP" # The below line is to be used if DHCP server on adsl # modem is disabled. #ifconfig_fxp0="inet 192.168.1.4 netmask 255.255.255.0" # This is assigned to telnet to adsl modem and configure it, # if you don't wanna communicate with modem, remove # this line. It doesn't affect ppp connectivity, in any way - # I tried removing it and got connected successfully. sshd_enable="YES" moused_enable="YES" powerd_enable="YES" # Set dumpdev to "AUTO" to enable crash dumps, "NO" to disable dumpdev="AUTO" hald_enable="YES" dbus_enable="YES" --- ## /etc/ppp/ppp.conf: default: set log Phase tun command adsl: set device PPPoE:fxp0 #MRU is optional too, you can remove it # w/o affecting ppp connectivity. set mru 1492 #set mtu 1492 # This was the cause of failure. # See man ppp for more info. # If MTU is set, ppp will not accept MRU values less than MTU. # e.g. MTU = 1492. Now if your ISP has MTU = 1460(my case), then # ppp on your PC, will not connect to ppp server at your ISP side. # So DO NOT set MTU explicitly. set authname set authkey set dial set login add default HISADDR enable dns # a must, if DHCP server is enabled in adsl modem # and if you don't wanna edit /etc/resolv.conf # each time before connecting tp ISP's ppp server. #Now you don't need to touch /etc/resolv.conf - My /etc/resolv.conf is updated each time I start ppp, so I didn't needed to edit it. I simply started ppp via ppp -ddial adsl I also didn't start ppp at bootup, as it requires that your adsl modem must be powered on before FreeBSD begins booting, which is not the usual case for me. Also, as soon as I started ppp, an ip address is assigned to tun0 interface by ISP, while fxp0 was assigned its ip address via DHCP server enabled in adsl modem, even before I attempted to dial ppp. That is expected. I also tested this configuration with DHCP server disabled in adsl modem and it too worked successfully, except I need to chnage the line fxp0="DHCP" to manually assigned ip address one, no other change was needed. The problem might be I was I trying to explcitly set MTU to be 1492, which ppp takes as minimum value - ie no MTU value less than 1492 is agreed upon by user ppp. My ISP's MTU was 1460, and since 1460 < 1492, so ppp was not agreeing upon MTU value and no connection was made. Thanks again all of you guys for sorting this out. :) Mean while I created a script to start and stop ppp service for a profile. This script is specifically written for csh/tcsh shell - the default one for FreeBSD, so some changes need to be made if it is to be run in other shells. Just go to c shell and type pppdo where 'profilename' is the desired profilename defined in etc/ppp/ppp.conf, and either you 'start' ppp or 'stop' ppp. Here goes the script: pppdo.sh #!/bin/csh if ( $#argv != 2 ) then echo "Usage: $0 " exit endif switch ($2) case start: /usr/sbin/ppp -ddial $1 ; breaksw case stop: killall -INT ppp killall -HUP ppp ; breaksw default: echo "$0 : Invalid Cmd" ; breaksw endsw - NOTE: before executing this script make sure it is executable If not, type this at shell: chmod +x ./pppdo.sh After executing this script try pinging to a remote site to confirm connectivity, e.g. type this at shell: ping -c5 freebsd.org If you get 0.0% packet loss, then you made it! So, the only files that require modifications are /etc/ppp/ppp.conf and /etc/rc.conf No other file need to be modified to use user ppp, no matter whether DHCP server on your adsl modem is enabled or disabled, it doesn't matter - just use the configuration mention above. Then use the script as: ./pppdo adsl start to start the ppp profile named "adsl"(tun0 interface is created), and use ./pppdo adsl stop to stop the ppp. This will destroy the tun0 interface too. PS: The user account from which this script is to be run, must be a member of "network" group too, though "network" group need not to be the user's login group. This is the requirement of user ppp itself, and not of this script. Regards -- Jack ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists

I'd leave fxp0 unset until you've fixed the other problems - it's not necessary for PPP. Modems and routers in PPPoE bridging mode don't normally require any adjustment or other access so there's probably no need to assign address anyway. > I still don' get why FreeBSD is having trouble > connecting via PPP. The original problem you quoted was with DNS and that's explained by the DHCP on fxp0 overwriting resolv.conf with the router/modem's own non-functional DNS proxy. As regards ppp.conf mine was simply: default: set log Phase tun command adsl: set device PPPoE:vr0 set authname set authkey add default HISADDR > ppp_adsl_unit="0" > > > I tried to specify tun0 interface explicitly, > but still no luck. > When I start ppp using: > service ppp start > It shows tun0 is busy. Don't try to specify the tun device number. I've noticed in the past that occasionally tun0 becomes unusable and ppp will switch to tun1. I've seen this happen when I've been restarting ppp a lot. > From my understanding it shoud not matter whether fxp0 is > assigned the ip address via DHCP server on local lan or via > manually - at least this concept works on windows. > > But in FreeBSD, if I enable dhcp on fxp0, then > /etc/resolv.conf is created each time I boot in FreeBSD, > so the only nameserver being 192.168.1.1, ie adsl > modem ethernet interface. > Even if I edit it to include nameservers of my ISP or OpenDNS > this file is created each time FreeBSD boots, and these entries > are lost, with only entry being 192.168.1.1 > There's no good reason to use DHCP in this case, you can simply set a static private IP address (typically a high address in the same /24 as the modem). If you really must use DHCP then it can be reconfigured globally or per interface (type apropos dhclient). I notice that the original resolv.conf you quoted was set by resolvconf. I've never used this so I can't comment on whether it's helping or hindering. I suspect it aimed at laptops switching between different networks. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

In my old setting, I had defined the IP for the NIC connected to the modem as 192.168.0.1, but my own network (and therefor also the 2nd NIC in the machine) in 192.168.1.* - I don't know if the first could have been omitted, just doing ="up" for the NIC connected to the modem. > sshd_enable="YES" > moused_enable="YES" > powerd_enable="YES" > # Set dumpdev to "AUTO" to enable crash dumps, "NO" to disable > dumpdev="AUTO" > > hald_enable="YES" > dbus_enable="YES" No problem here, not related. > routerenable="NO" This option does not exist.

Re: pppoe configuration and dns name resolution
Hi again, This time I disabled DHCP on my fxp0 interface and in my adsl modem too. But the problem still exists. This time I tried both approaches: assigned an IP address explicitly to fxp0, and then no explicit assignment to fxp0. I still don' get why FreeBSD is having trouble connecting via PPP.

Exactly that's what I did describe in my message: Configuration data is set in ppp.conf, no DHCP involved, and the actual IP will be delivered to the tun0 interface, while fxp0 (in this case) can be used for involving with NAT (if required). Setting the nameserver to an _actual_ nameserver (either running named on the machine, or relying on the ISP's nameservers) is required. This is the easiest approach to dealing with PPPoE modems (if they are used as "actual modems" without any additional routing, DHCP or other functionality). -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

It doesn't have an internet connection if it's not terminating PPP. You have ifconfig_fxp0="DHCP" which means you are picking up DHCP from the modem itself not the other side of the PPP link. In bridging mode you only need to configure the underlying ethernet device if you want to route back-out into the router's LAN (PPPoE and IP can share a lan). You don't necessarily need DHCP with PPPoE because PPP can deliver the IP address, DNS etc by itself. If the ISP requires you to use DHCP you should probably have configured the tun0 interface instead of fxp0. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I've been using PPPoE with a DSL modem for many years, using
FreeBSD 4, 5 and 7 with the system's PPPoE tools. The IP
was provided to the computer directly, so no DHCP in the
modem involved ("real modem mode").
In /etc/ppp/ppp.conf, I did simply define:
myispname:
set device PPPoE:xl0
set authname customer1234567@myispname
set authkey X
set dial
set login
add default HISADDR
No further changes to that file. Note that here, xl0 is the
interface directly connected to the modem.
And in /etc/rc.conf:
ifconfig_xl0="192.168.0.1 netmask 0xff00"
ppp_enable="YES"
ppp_profile="myispname"
ppp_mode="ddial"
ppp_nat="YES"
So the system would automatically start the connection
at boot time. The tun0 interface would then be associated
the public IP designated when the PPPoE connection was up
and running.
Note that ppp_nat only has been needed to "transition" the
connection through a 2nd NIC into the local net, making my
machine a gateway (including related services, such as natd
and dhcpd).
I also think initializing the NIC xl0 is not entirely needed,
maybe "up" would have been sufficient.
For actually being able to use PPPoE, I did add the required
components to the kernel, because that approach was "state of
the art" at those times. :-)
In /etc/resolv.conf I did add the nameservers published by
my ISP. Anything worked automatically, I did not need to make
further changes.
Basically my setup looks like yours, except that (as I said) I
did not use any "additional features" of the DSL modem (as it
did not have such features). :-)

More accurately, bridge mode (on the modem) means your FreeBSD box will need to be the termination point of the PPPoE link rather than the modem itself and so you need to run something to terminate the PPPoE packets and mpd5 will do that (among other things). - Mark ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

change MAC address for PPPoE connection
Hello I'm using PPPoE link to connect to the INTERNET. my problem is that I have to change my MAC address for my night time link. I do that using ifconfig command before connecting the night link: *killall ppp ifconfig cdce0 ether 2a:00:00:00:00:00 ppp -ddial adslnight* cdce0 is the interface connected to the ADSL modem. command will change the MAC address on the interface but PPP still uses the old MAC (I can see it over tcpdump). I think it's some cache or something that keeps the old MAC. please help me, I couldn't find anything related on-line. my ppp.conf: *adsl: set log Phase tun command set redial 99 3 set device PPPoE:cdce0 set authname UserName set authkey Password set dial set login add default HISADDR adslnight: set log Phase tun command set redial 99 3 set device PPPoE:cdce0 set authname NightUserName set authkey NightPassword set dial set login add default HISADDR* ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
PPPoE-Server
Hi Folks, i try to setup a pppoe-server. Until now iv'e try this with rc_pppoe and mpd5, both didn't work. The rp_pppoe implementation from ports are answering my PADI but after PADS the system terminates the connection with "pppd terminated". The setup from mpd5 fails at all without any response for the PADI message. Is there a good howto for configuring pppoe-server on FreeBSD 8.0? Furtehrmore the system dont tell much information in logfiles. Is there an possibility to set the loglevel e.g. to DEBUG?

PPPoE is documented in the handbook, I'd suggest you set that up first together with a simple pf firewall to secure the system. There are plenty of howtos for PF+NAT+DHCP. I would suggest you also run a DNS cache so dhcp clients can be given a fixed private IP address instead of the ISP servers. FWIW you may not actually need two NICs, if you have a modem/router with multiple ports you may be able to get away with PPPoE and your lan sharing the same NIC (your wan interface being tun0). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

As a start your pf.conf could look a bit like this:
#
ext_if = "tun0"
int_if = "em1"
localnet = $int_if:network
set block-policy return
set skip on lo0
scrub in all
nat on $ext_if from $localnet to any -> ($ext_if)
antispoof for ($ext_if)
antispoof for $int_if
block in log all
pass inet from { lo0, $localnet } to any
pass out on $ext_if all
#

It's quite easy, I did this in the past with FreeBSD 5.
1. PPPoE
Setup /etc/ppp/ppp.conf with the correct data for your ISP.
It woule be like this:
:
set device PPPoE:
set authname
set authkey
set dial
set login
add default HISADDR
In /etc/rc.conf, enter
ifconfig_="up"
ppp_enable="YES"
ppp_profile=""
ppp_mode="ddial"
ppp_nat="YES"
for the external interface, and for the internal one:
ifconfig_="inet 192.168.100.1 netmask 0xff00"
(or any other subnet definition you like)
dhcpd_enable="YES"
dhcpd_conf="/usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf"
dhcpd_ifaces=""
dhcpd_flags="-q"
Keep in mind that you have to load
netgraph_load="YES"
ng_ether_load="YES"
ng_pppoe_load="YES"
ng_socket_load="YES"
per /boot/loader.conf in order to enable the Netgraph
subsystem. I think tho
2. PF
-
Sorry, I'm not familiar with PF, I always used IPFW. So I
had the rule
add divert natd ip from any to any via
prior to the other rules that formed a setting to be
described as: "Only allow those (named) ports for connections,
disallow anything else."
3. DHCP
---
Install the ISC DHCP server from ports and configure the
settings for the local network as intended. THis is usually
done in /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf with a content like this:
option domain-name-servers ;
ddns-update-style none;
subnet 192.168.100.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.100.2 192.168.100.250;
option routers 192.168.100.1;
}
You can add "host" entries for "well-known" so they always
get the same IP according to their MAC, and "deny unknown-clients;"
to force MAC knowledge.
Since I ran this setting in v5, kernel configuration required
to have
options DUMMYNET
options IPFIREWALL
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT
options IPDIVERT
in the file. I'm sure this is not needed anymore, because
there are modules for this. Of course, you can include the
options for NETGRAPH here, too.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I'm not using such a setting anymore, so I'm
not sure if this is still recommended or even working on v8.

Re: PPPoE server (high traffic in WDM network)
Hi, I've little off topic suggestion regarding network design. The solution you are implementing will mean to make hundreds of users share the same broadcast domain. As all your FTTH and other DSLAMS would be working in bridge mode. This scenerio is not safe as if anyone of your clients will start his own pppoe server you will be in strange trouble, there can be other issues too. I guess your DSLAMs must have built in pppoe support and radius client, if its there then every port of dslams can be separate broadcast domain. This will cause you extra routing management (depending upon your scsnerio) In case your DSLAMS have no pppoe feature then i would suggest you to at least put every DSLAM's uplink port in deparate VLAN and connect pppoe server using trunk port or multiple single ports. And before implementing this solution consult your DSLAM vendor cause ive observed problems in ipdslams when used in bridge/transperant mode.

I am ongoing to install a CWDM (1GE) and DWDM (10GE) network for the Alvarion BreezeACCESS VL (38 base stations) and more then 200 Iskratel FTTH DSLAMS of 96 ports (each with 100MBit, but only one 1GE Upstream) each.

Please note, that I am ongoing ISP with over 150.000 customers in DE between Freiburg and Karlsruhe (Baden-Württemberg) and using consumer mainboards is NOT reliabel since in the last 6 years I lost at least 20 per year in 280 Low-Cost Servers. A "Sun Fire X4100M2" would be more reliabel... but even the smallest CPU would be overkill because the machine has only 1GE interfaces. Any suggestions?

PPPoE server (high traffic in WDM network)
Hello Michelle, I think you better ask about the performance you should expect out of a PPPoE server on the mpd forum. There people on the forum with real numbers. If I go with 1 U Sun Fire X4100M2 the Opteron has 4 Cores and 4 threads per core (AFAIK there is a 8 threads version too) I would ask about this as well. i386? amd64? number of cores? http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=44693 HTH, Nikos ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

So, you'll have 96*200 possible PPP clients. How many concurrent PPP sessions do you care to support? And more importantly, how much aggregate bandwidth? Because the customers are permanently On-Line du to the VoIP-Telephone, we count with the full number of clients... The distance between the FTTH DSLAM and the customers can be up to 10km. The idea is now, that we do not simply connect the FTTH DSLAM's to the CISCO switches but building a redunant Ethernet Carrier Network. This mean, we can install in each village there own FTTH DSLAM even if there are 2500 hausholds and we install 26 FTTH DSLAM's there. This mean in theorie 250 GBit Customer Downstream, 26 Gbit Upstream but we count with a 10 GE which is maybe used to 30-50%. OK, if we switch to an "Ethernet Carrier Network" I could install one or two PPPoE Servers in each village. But if one goes down, the second has to handel 2500 client connections. I *think* the number of clients is doable. I don't know about the bandwidth. Note: This is ONLY the base installation between Kehl, Rheinau, Renchen and Oberkirch (arround 35.000 hausholds) and the whole region has 150.000 hausholds. Don't understand what you mean round-robin and loadbalancing? Read below. FreeBSD has a RADIUS library in base. The two notable users of libradius are ppp and net/mpd. The only choice in a ISP environment I think is the net/mpd5 port. Read the outline here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ports/net/mpd5/pkg-descr It is very good and is actually used in large setups. Thankyo for the link, I will red on if I am in Office... Can't reply, but keep in mind that filling a 10GE pipe is a hard task on its own. It depends on how many customers you have and with an Internet access of 100 Mbit plus services like IPTV and VOD you can fill up a 10 GE pipe. I meant "filling a 10 Gbit pipe with a general purpose computer architecture is a hard task". Packet forwarding at these rates is tricky. I *think* having more low fidelity BRASs, will serve your needs better that a few high fidelity ones. You mean, putting a bunch of small 1U Servers into a 19" 42RU? Yes, you may find that having two small boxes instead of bigger one gives better results performance-wise. You also have to test if SMP helps and how much. A beast with 16 cores is more powerful from a regular computer with 2 cores, but does it help in your setup? You can try NanoBSD and TinyBSD which are FreeBSD based and I believe can fit the bill. These two run with their filesystems read-only mounted which is ideal for flash memories. Can you recomment it for an ISP setup? It's FreeBSD running from a read-only mounted medium. No more, no less. Yes, it's fine for an ISP setup. Hmmm, I am right, that NanoBSD can be bootup over network? (this would be another solution) NanoBSD is meant to run in embedded stand-alone devices. So, I *guess* that is conceptually very far from net booting.

Do these three steps and if everything works, wait for the random disconnection to happen. It should behave the same way. tcpdump is your friend while trying the above. OK, dud.

Re: pppoe routing problem, default route isnt used for some hosts
Fabian Holler wrote:
Hello,
I have an strange routing problem. I can't connect to some hosts in the
internet till I add an explicit route for this hosts with my default gw
as gateway.
There aren't any other routes that could match the destination IP for
"non-working hosts". So the connection should also without an explicit
route for this Hosts use the default gw.
My Setup:
FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE
mppd to make an PPPOE connection to my internet service
provider.
PF as firewall
To isolate the problem I used an minimal pf.conf:
---
"inetif=ng0
lanif=vr0
scrub all max-mss 1492
pass quick on lo0 all
pass out on $inetif proto { tcp udp icmp } all keep state"
pass on $lanif from any to any
---
I also tried pppd instead of mppd(dont helps).
Hosts that I can't connect to, are ie spiegel.de, tagesschau.de, freebsd.org
southparkstudios.com
I.e
TCP connections to Port 80 of southparkstudios.com dont work.
If I add an explicit route:
"route add southparkstudios.com 213.191.84.199"
Besides netstat -rn, you can use "route get southparkstudios.com"
to check a route for a destination.
Connections with nc to port 80 works
(the connections tests are made from the router, the iface MTUs are correct)
You cannot test MTU settings using nc, since initial packets, that
is, small packets, are always smaller than your MTU. You can test
MTU using fetch or ftp or nc + "GET /some.big.file".
Anybody have an idea what could be wrong?
I have no idea anymore
(its also not an provider problem, when i made the pppoe connection from
windows I can connect to alls hosts)
thanks for any hints:)
best regards
Fabian

pppoe routing problem, default route isnt used for some hosts
Hello,
I have an strange routing problem. I can't connect to some hosts in the
internet till I add an explicit route for this hosts with my default gw
as gateway.
There aren't any other routes that could match the destination IP for
"non-working hosts". So the connection should also without an explicit
route for this Hosts use the default gw.
My Setup:
FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE
mppd to make an PPPOE connection to my internet service
provider.
PF as firewall
To isolate the problem I used an minimal pf.conf:
---
"inetif=ng0
lanif=vr0
scrub all max-mss 1492
pass quick on lo0 all
pass out on $inetif proto { tcp udp icmp } all keep state"
pass on $lanif from any to any
---
I also tried pppd instead of mppd(dont helps).
Hosts that I can't connect to, are ie spiegel.de, tagesschau.de, freebsd.org
southparkstudios.com
I.e
TCP connections to Port 80 of southparkstudios.com dont work.
If I add an explicit route:
"route add southparkstudios.com 213.191.84.199"
Connections with nc to port 80 works
(the connections tests are made from the router, the iface MTUs are correct)
Anybody have an idea what could be wrong?
I have no idea anymore
(its also not an provider problem, when i made the pppoe connection from
windows I can connect to alls hosts)
thanks for any hints:)
best regards
Fabian

Not elegantly, but you can change the remote peer address to something else. That is: 1) Bring up tun0, you get from IPCP 1.1.1.1 -> 2.2.2.2 ifconfig tun0 1.1.1.1 3.3.3.3 2) Bring up tun1, you get 1.1.1.2 -> 2.2.2.2 ifconfig tun1 1.1.1.2 4.4.4.4 3) Bring up tun2, you get 1.1.1.3 -> 2.2.2.2 The result will be: tun0 1.1.1.1 3.3.3.3 tun1 1.1.1.2 4.4.4.4 tun2 1.1.1.3 2.2.2.2 You'll need to write a custom script, to modify the addresses, I think both ppp and mpd can do that. Are you going to use pf's route-to to forward packets to all three interfaces? Since, the above hack doesn't "solve" the next hop problem. You can only have one next hop for each destination. On -CURRENT there is support for ECMP, which may be a complete and correct solution for this problem.

They just won't because they don't want to make it easy for you to run a server. They want to suppress your use. You might check with other ISPs or twist their arm more, or get a little more sophisticated by letting DHCP set the IPs and have your domain registered through one of the nameserver services that will allow you to reset the info each time you boot. Then, there are some utilities you can get to check what IP got set and then notify that nameserver service. I don't remember offhand the names of any of those services or the utilities you can use to talk to them, but there are several and you can just do a little searching for them. jerry > > For this reason I have changed my WAN2 settings to this in the config file. > set ipcp ranges my-first-static-ip/32 isp-gateway/32 > > I know you said its not recommended, but I need to use this ip and my isp > can't set that for me.

I asked them if they can set one of my ips as the main ip that will be assigned every time I dail in and they told me no they can't do it because of some security thing on there side :-S Basicaly how they explained it to me is because I have 5 ips, when we dail in we get assigned a dynamic ip and on top of that I have to manually set the 5 ips to what ever services I would like them to be used for. If I want my WAN2 connection to use one of the 5 ips I have to manually set it so that all my out going connections will be using that ip.

It might be usefull once I register a proper domain for the office, but for now we are using no-ip.org and it is working just fine. What I do know is that if I disconnect let say wan2 for some time and then reconnect, I will be assigned an ip address on a total different subnet and it messes up everything, I have to manually set the ips in our router for them to be used, this is why I'm asking how I can set the ip addresses, on wan1 if I reboot the router where I haven't set the static ip, it does reconnect using the correct ip, but I have never disconnected this line for more the 1 minute. Right now I'm using wan1 for all our outgoing ftp, one site that doesn't like load balancing and incoming pptp connections, wan2 is used for outgoing https and ssh connections, incoming http and ssh connections is coming in on both wan1 and wan2 depending on which ip is registered at no-ip.org. All other outgoing connections are using both wan1 and wan2. All this I can do with PF, but I need to find a way to set the ips. > >> How does mpd5 assign the ng interfaces, in my previose cong there was a >> line new -i ng0 provider PPPoE0, does mpd5 do this automatically? > > Interfaces will be allocated by system in order of usage.

mpd with a dual pppoe setup
Hi, I'm building a new router/firewall for my work, I have installed freebsd7 and updated it and compiled pf into the kernel and installed mpd5 for pppoe. Before I make this system life I would like your input on my mpd settings. We have 2 adsl lines and I want to use the new firewall to do load balancing between them. I've been searching all over the net to find out more about how I can use mpd for this but all I can find is single pppoe or mlppp conections, our isp does not support mlppp so thats not an option. PF will be used for the load balancing and I want to use ancors for when one of the dsl lines goes down. For now I have only configured mpd but I'm not sure if its done corectly, I can't test it because that will mean that I will have to take our current system off line and that is not an option.

Perhaps the peer does not accept LQR. Disable LQR. Disable echo as well. These settings provide some monitoring capabilities, but must be accepted by both peers. If for some reason(probably misconfiguration) these are not accepted by the other peer, things will not work... But, try disabling only LQR at first. > > Finally, > Where does the initial IP address used in the negotiation come from? > I did not specify specific IP address assignment, > yet the request appears to have asked for 12.32.36.65 > This is the IP of the other interface on the machine, > and my ppp.conf has no mention of it. It's not important. These IP addresses will be denied by the other peer during IPCP. The peer will then provide you an IP address and ppp will accept it.

My knowledge about ATM is minimal. So, I don't realy know how to answer to your question about bridging being transparent to the ISP. But I can tell you for sure that ISPs do not bother if you cannot connect using FreeBSD and PPPoE. You are mainly on your own. I assume that if you use the same settings your modem uses to do PPPoE it won't make a difference to the ISP end. You said you had wrong encapsulation type.

Re: user ppp and PPPoE bridging

user ppp and PPPoE bridging
I'm attempting to change a DSL link from using PPPoE in the DSL modem
to doing PPPoE on 6.1, with the modem in bridging mode.
I've put the DSL modem in bridging mode, and it brings up the link
properly -- or at least it reports it as up (DSL led steady; modem status
report shows it as up, rfc 1483.
Using user ppp, when I attempt to establish the PPPoE connection, I
never get very far -- ppp dies when it tries to acquire carrier. I
don't understand this, as there isn't a carrier signal to acquire on
an ethernet. I tried disabling cd in ppp.conf but as noted in the doc,
it's required for a PPPoE connection and is forced on.
Also, how do I know know which interface it is attempting to connect to?
The debug log shows it found five interfaces, but doesn't indicate which
one it is trying to connect to.
Thanks for any clues,
Gary

Installing FreeBSD using a PPPoE connection
Does the FreeBSD 6.2 installer support a network install over an ethernet interface connected to a DSL modem using a PPPoE connection? I am switching ISPs from a cable-based provider to a DSL-based provider and would like to install FreeBSD on an old PC to set it up as a router/firewall for my home network. And since this old PC does not have a CD-ROM drive I'd like to a network install using PPPoE. But I haven't been able to find any current information on how to accomplish this. There used to be an (unofficial) page by Randy Pratt: "Installing FreeBSD Using PPPoE": <http://www.treefort.org/~rpratt/pppoe/article.html> but it's no longer there. Any help/advice is appreciated.

pppoe and nat problem
hi all. I'm trying to solve one problem but with no success in 1 week. I'm setting up Gateway server with PPPoE functionality for per LAN users to authenticate and traffic shaping. Incoming Internet connection is Ethernet. This PC have 2 NIC. LAN NIC do not have IP assigned. pppoe listens on LAN side interface and passes connection to user land ppp. (traffic shaping is via IPFW) ppp handles all other tasks like Proxy-Arp and so on. I have only 8 public IP address from ISP. So current test configuration is "Proxy-Arp" in ppp.conf and PPP's DHCP range is within ISP allocated zone. Every thing is Ok, with this configuration, LAN users can surf the net. This configuration can support at most, ISP allocated IP numer of concurrent connections. If I allocate exceeding IP zone for DHCP in ppp.conf like "set ifaddr 100.200.300.1 100.200.300.2-100.200.300.100" then ppp.log says "ppp Warning: xx.xx.xx.xx : Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP", maybe it's obvious because of its not in Internet IP zone anymore. But I need to support at least 50 simultaneous connection. If possible, I need NAT in inside PPP. I tried, tried, reed many times. No success. In ppp(8) man it says "NAT is done on the external interface only, and is unlikely to make sense if used with the -direct flag." Current pppoed forks /usr/sbin/ppp with the "-direct" argument. Is it clue on this problem? How to NAT or Route if PPP's DHCP IP zone is different from Gateway IP zone when ppp is working in "-direct" mode. How to to route traffic within tunX and Gateway NIC? Or is there any other solutions for this? Thanks in advance. Help much appreciated. munkh. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I am not familiar with these programs, but keep in mind that these methods may not be the best choice. FreeBSD and BSDs in general are very nicely integrated. The solution might (or not) be in the base system. > I guess there's no way to > force that log level to stdout? You guessed wrong:) From ppp(8): It is also possible to log directly to the screen. The syntax is the same except that the word ``local'' should immediately follow ``set log''. The default is ``set log local'' (i.e., only the un-maskable warning, error and alert output). Something else of possible interest is that ppp, can serve its console over a socket making remote debugging possible.

It looks as though set log local ... does what you want: check the manpage for ppp. Jonathan ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I turned up the logging and I had to turn it down before it filled /var. :) If I could get it to log like that to the console, then I could supervise it with runit, logging via svlogd.

debugging pppoe
I've turned logging up to All for ppp, for my DSL connection, and I've been disappointed to find that when it can't connect, ppp offers no help whatsoever as to why. I'm going to try rp-pppoe from ports, since on Linux it's actually quite helpful in full debug, but I'm surprised at how little BSD's ppp tells me when logging is turned right up. Any other suggestions? Thanks, Mike -- Michael P. Soulier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex...

Yes, it puzzles me why it happens in the first place, but as it hits the XP, linux and BSD connections equally frequenly, I am assuming it is a function of hardware or IP provider. fwiw, looking at your conf, my ppp.conf contains one setting that yours does not ... enable tcpmssfixup there's a bit of discussion abt it here: http://lists.apple.com/archives/Darwin-development/2001/Aug/msg00502.html dunno if this is related -- just throwing it out there. cheers. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Here is my /etc/ppp/ppp.conf it has been "worked on" but so far seems to have been OK.

Re: PPPoE equivalent?
hi, I'm not sure there is, I've had a similar problem like this before, and I got around it by writing a simple script that would try and ping a local site 4 times, and if no responses got back it would killall ppp and delete the default routes and tell ppp to reconnect. It worked quite well when put into cron to run at 1 minute intervals. i'm getting all this set up as well, and following this thread ... (1) are not ppp.linkup & ppp.linkdown supposed to be the 'place' to deal with this? (2) could you share your simple script? thanks! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I'm not sure there is, I've had a similar problem like this before, and I got around it by writing a simple script that would try and ping a local site 4 times, and if no responses got back it would killall ppp and delete the default routes and tell ppp to reconnect.

Any special circumstances (for example, a heavy load)?
