[pfSense Support] Load Balancer Behaviour

2007-04-24 Thread Quirino Santilli
Scott (pfsense support),

please help me, when adding a load balancer pool I can't see the
interface name (WAN for example) preceding the |(Wan check ip). This
is a fresh install with the latest snapshot and I can't figure hot why
is going in this sense for me.
I tried recreating the pools, but there's no way.
Can you please help me?

10x in advance.

[pfSense Support] OpenVPN problem in 1.2

2007-04-24 Thread Pablo Montoro Escaño
We are testing the beta 1 of pfSense 1.2 and we have found that the OpenVPN has 
a problem that it had not in 1.0.1.


Trying to create a configuration in the server or client tag, after pressing 
Save it returns to the OpenVPN with no rules created.


The same has been done (exactly the same) in a pfSense 1.0.1 and the rule has 
been created correctly.


a bug?

[pfSense Support] Inbound Loadbalancing problem

2007-04-24 Thread Gary Buckmaster
Prior to trying to install this into production, I had this entire 
scenario working perfectly in a test environment.  Something, it seems, 
has changed between testing and production. 

I have a cluster of 15 web servers which I intend to load balance with a 
CARP'd cluster.  I've created a CARP VIP address which will be the 
virtual server address and another one on the LAN to serve as the 
gateway for the server pool.  CARP failover has been configured and 
appears to work properly, although the secondary load balancer, for some 
odd reason, is always the Master. 

The problem comes when I try to test web connectivity to the balanced 
servers.  Traffic hits the virtual server address, hits the load 
balanced pool of servers and that appears to be where things stop.  A 
tcpdump shows that traffic appears to be coming from both pfSense boxes, 
which seems contrary to the way the load balancer should be working:

Re: [pfSense Support] Inbound Loadbalancing problem

Both boxes are likely polling the web servers in question, hence the
traffic from both machines.

You might confirm that you have rules loaded to allow this traffic.

Re: [pfSense Support] Inbound Loadbalancing problem - SOLVED

2007-04-24 Thread Gary Buckmaster
This issue turned out to be primarily a configuration problem, although 
it serves as a good lesson for others to learn from so I'll post the 
reply for the sake of posterity. 


background
We currently have 16 web servers in production handling requests.  They 
are sitting behind Cisco Localdirectors.  Because of how the 
LocalDirectors are configured, its not a simple plug-and-play scenario 
to substitute in the pfSense boxes.  In order to make the transition 
more smooth, a number of machines were multi-homed so as to exist behind 
the localdirectors and the new pfSense network. 
/background


The astute reader will quickly surmise what happened.  Although the web 
servers were located on both networks, their default route was 
inadvertently left alone.  Thus traffic coming from the pfSense boxes 
was replied to using the wrong network card, causing the timeout issues. 

This turned out to be a blessing in disguise because it demonstrated a 
more gentle way we could transition to the new machines without 
interrupting service dramatically as DNS propagated to the new cluster. 

Thanks to the pfSense team for such a great product and their help in 
figuring out the issue.

I'm at a loss trying to figure out what the issue is.

Re: [pfSense Support] Inbound Loadbalancing problem - SOLVED

This issue turned out to be primarily a configuration problem, although
it serves as a good lesson for others to learn from so I'll post the
reply for the sake of posterity.

background
We currently have 16 web servers in production handling requests.  They
are sitting behind Cisco Localdirectors.  Because of how the
LocalDirectors are configured, its not a simple plug-and-play scenario
to substitute in the pfSense boxes.  In order to make the transition
more smooth, a number of machines were multi-homed so as to exist behind
the localdirectors and the new pfSense network.
/background

The astute reader will quickly surmise what happened.  Although the web
servers were located on both networks, their default route was
inadvertently left alone.  Thus traffic coming from the pfSense boxes
was replied to using the wrong network card, causing the timeout issues.

This turned out to be a blessing in disguise because it demonstrated a
more gentle way we could transition to the new machines without
interrupting service dramatically as DNS propagated to the new cluster.


I'm not following what the gentle way of transitioning to the new
machines is.  Care to elaborate a little?  Did you change the default
route on part of the farm and disable the interfaces on the machines
that should still be going through the LocalDirector?

--Bill

PS. I'm very happy to see pfSense replace a LocalDirector - I honestly
didn't expect to see anyone using the load balancing code when I wrote
it, except for the one person that requested it.
