Correct, that hadn't been updated for more recent changes in
open-vm-tools. I just updated the page, yours is fine.

[pfSense] vmware tools

[Olivier Mascia]

Reading this: https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Open_VM_Tools_package
after package installation and reboot,

ps uxawww | grep vmware

gives me this output which differs from the doc.pfsense.org article:

root55265   0.0  0.2  17000  2516  -  S12:04PM  0:00.00 sh -c ps uxawww

/usr/local/bin/vmtoolsd -c /usr/local/share/vmware-tools/tools.conf -p 
/usr/local/lib/open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsvc

Does /usr/local/bin/vmtoolsd here correspond to /usr/local/sbin/vmware-guestd 
which the article shows?
It says "As long as vmware-guestd is shown in the output, it is working."
Here I have vmtoolsd, not vmware-guestd.
Merely a matter of older/newer version of this stuff between the article and 
2.3.x?

Re: [pfSense] VLAN Issue - pfSense/VMware/Cisco

[Jonatas Baldin]

Using the same configuration, but excluding the ESXi host (using a physical
pfSense) it worked smoothly.

I tried to remove the VLAN ID Tag from the vSwitch, but didn't work too :/


2014-07-13 23:55 GMT-03:00 Justin Edmands shockwav...@gmail.com:

 Here is some interesting info about esxi NICs when used with Cisco, or
 other, VLAN:

 Only allowing through VLAN traffic on physical switch ports
 connecting to ESX reduces TCP/IP overhead. Native VLANs do not tag the
 out going VLAN packets toward ESX NICs and if the same VLAN ID is used
 to configure the vSwitch port group, the vSwitch drops any packet that
 is not tagged for it, causing the connection to fail. Unnecessary VLAN
 traffic on a TRUNK port that connects to ESX can cause major
 performance issues.

 Note: Do not use the Native VLAN ID of a physical switch as a VLAN on
 ESX/ESXi portgroups.

 Also the link shows the proper Cisco trunk config

[pfSense] vmware

[Brian Caouette]

I'm looking to use vmware 4.1 on my poweredge 2850 when it arrives. I 
have a question on how virtual machines work. With a hardware 
configuration of two nics wan/lan how does each vm use them? Do I need a 
nic for each vm or as long as each ap is using a different port i'm good 
to go?


I'm thinking a vm for pfsense, another vm for a webserver, etc...

Re: [pfSense] vmware

[Doug Lytle]

  With a hardware configuration of two nics wan/lan how does each vm use them?

On my home ESXi system, the computer has 3 NICs.  Each NIC is assigned to a 
virtual switch.  I have 3 Virtual switches, LAN, DMZ, Internet

Each VM is assigned to one of the virtual switches, but in the case of my 
pfSense VM, it is assigned all 3.  So, it ends up with 3 NIC(s), 1 on the LAN, 
1 on the DMZ and 1 on the Internet.

Re: [pfSense] vmware

[Jason Whitt]

Your going to have all kinds of headaches with VMware on a 2850 Look into a 
2900 series at the least.

With VMware or any virtual platform you'll assign a nic on the host to a 
virtual switch. Then a vm to that switch. You'll have a vswitch for lan and a 
vswitch for wan. (Simplest configuration.

Your pfsense vm will have a vnic on each switch, then your www would be on the 
lan vswitch.

But first get better hardware you'll drink less.

If you look at the build logs on the snapshot server, you will also see the

 The docs (http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/VMwareAppliance) state that
 there is no longer a current vmware appliance for download. Is there a
 particular reason for this? Are there plans to reinstate that at some
 point?

 If you look at the Snapshots server, it seems that there are VMWare

Re: [pfSense] VMWare maximum of 10 vnics

Hi,

I'm currently trying to configure pfSense firewall in a VMWare machine.
There is apparently a limit of 10 vNICs on Vsphere 5, but I would need
this firewall to access 11 networks. Since all the networks in VMWare
are already tagged vlans, I don't really how to overcome this limit.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Ugo


BTW I'm not looking for a solution, just an answer.  If it doesn't work 
in VMWare, I'll use 2 physical servers and a CARP setup.  However, I'd 
rather go with VMWare if possible.


Thanks,

Ugo

Don't see the issue? Set the vSwitch vlan to All then assign the vlans
inside pfSense all to one or max 10 nics.

What's your vSphere net config look like?
