ah, thanks, I did wonder if that might be the case. I put a machine
outside the firewalls on which I put squid as an intermediate fix, and
it works well enough for testing.

Re: [pfSense Support] Load Balancer + Failover

2007-10-10 Thread Lee Hetherington

Hi Bill,

The config was sync'd ok, I can see it on both boxes.  Below is a ps -ax 
from the secondary machine:


# ps -ax |grep slb
60083  ??  Ss 0:00.51 /usr/local/sbin/slbd -c/var/etc/slbd.conf -r5000
65097  p0  RV 0:00.00 grep slb (tcsh)

Looks to me like its running?  I tried editing the config and saving it 
like you suggest, and the ps -ax was then:


# ps -ax | grep slb
65407  ??  Ss 0:00.00 /usr/local/sbin/slbd -c/var/etc/slbd.conf -r5000

Still nothing however when I reboot the primary...

Subject: [pfSense Support] Asterisk and PfSense


Hi,

I have an asterisk server that is working mostly with SIP clients 
behind NAT.  I'd like to put this asterisk server behind the PfSense to 
benefit from QoS and added security, packages, etc.  However, I just 
tested and I can't make it work with more than 2 clients at the time 
(using 1-to-1 NAT).  I've tried disabling static port.  I've also tried 
to also disable scrubbing.  I've tried setting the firewall setting to 
'conservative'.  The problem I'm getting is that once a second SIP 
client registers, it kind of kicks out the first one and so on.

I've tried it without NAT, but I didn't really know how to do it, so I 
just gave the linux (asterisk) server the public IP address I wanted and 
made appropriate firewall rules.  I couldn't connect using ssh, so I 
stopped fiddling around and wrote this message.

What is recommended in my situation?

Regards,

Ugo Bellavance

Interesting. We have quite a few pfsense + asterisk deployments out there in 
precisely this configuration and everything works fine.


Weird.  Maybe I'll write an howto when I succeed, as almost everything 
on pfsense + asterisk on google doesn't seem to be working.



You've set up 1:1 NAT, that's fine. In pfSense, check that port 5060 is allowed 
(UDP) for SIP, and 1-2 are allowed (UDP) for RTP - assuming you haven't 
changed the port range in asterisk's rtp.conf


Yes, I'm allowing

UDP 5060 - 5069 (SIP
UDP 1-2 (RTP)


On the asterisk box, check your sip.conf file. You need the following:

localnet = 10.0.0.0/8
localnet = 172.16.0.0/12
localnet = 192.168.0.0/16
localnet = 169.254.0.0/16


I missed that.


externip = asterisk_true_external_ip


I had this.



Substitute your real external 1:1 NAT IP into externip. The localnet entries 
tell asterisk that SIP packets from any of those address ranges should have 
their claimed IP ignored and their apparent IP/port used instead.


Oh, I thought externip was enough.


In each sip.conf device section, make sure nat=yes is included.


Yes, all there.


Hopefully that should solve your problems.


I'll try that tonight or tomorrow night.

Thanks a lot!

Re: [pfSense Support] Load Balancer + Failover

2007-10-10 Thread Bill Marquette
Hmm, what does the output of pfctl -sn -aslb look like on both
boxes?  The other obvious question is, are the virtual addresses that
front end your load balance pool CARP addresses?  If they aren't, then
the secondary won't take them over on failover regardless of the load
balance config.

Re: [pfSense Support] Dual WAN failover too sensitive

2007-10-10 Thread Bill Marquette
Yikes, we certainly never tested for satellite latencies.  The fping
command line we use is:
/usr/local/sbin/fping -B1.5 -t400 -r3 -q
This should give us successive tries of:
400ms timeout
600ms timeout
900ms timeout
1350ms timeout

I'll have to check what the fping exit code is if it's missing one of
it's pings.  It does look like the logic changed a hair (incorrectly I
believe) from the original code, it's entirely possible that a bug was
introduced.

Do me a favor, run this at your command line.

/usr/local/sbin/fping -B 1.5 -t400 -r3 your monitor IP here
echo $?

--Bill

On 10/10/07, Craig Drown [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 Hi,
 we have 2 Wan connections for outgoing failover.
 The preferred connection is a VSAT. If we put the monitor address as
 the locat satellite modem it doesn't really tell us if the gateway in
 Singpore is working. If we put an ip address in Singpore it seems to
 change over when the connection is in fact fine (latency is c. 600ms)
 Can the slbd settings be altered at all (WRAP running 1.2rc2).
 Thanks.

 With the IPSEC tunnels now terminating at a 172.16 network and the server
 they need to connect to being

 I have tried various NAT settings, proxy arp, Virtual IPs but I have a

 Is this even possible?

FreeBSD must be able to support the device

Is this something there genuinely isn't any interest in amongst the community?

The other way of going about it is to rip out the PCB from a few low-cost Zyxel 
routers, drill out a 1U chassis and mount them in there with a 12v power 
supply, but each device would be independent (and need configuring 
independently).

Obviously, doing it through an already familiar interface such as pfSense would 
seem much more sensible.

A problem I seem to recall is I don't think anyone makes ADSL2/2+ PCI 
cards. While the old ADSL cards may get you by for now, depending on the 
situation they may leave you stuck in a matter of months to a couple 
years maybe.

Re: [pfSense Support] Load Balancer + Failover

2007-10-10 Thread Bill Marquette
Strange, other than the sticky address (which should be more a
nuisance than anything) not getting set on the secondary, I'm not
seeing anything obvious that would prevent the connection from
working.

The only other thing I can think to look at is whether the rulesets
(/tmp/rules.debug) are the same between the two machines (with
exception to a few subtle differences they should be).

You can try tcpdump'ing on the secondary and making sure the tcp
traffic is making it to the external interface.  If it is, check the
inside and see what's actually getting passed through.  Lastly, double
check the firewall logs, you might be seeing blocks for some reason.

FWIW, I have similar setups working just fine (minus pfsense as the
frontend), so this is likely a pfsense bug or a config issue of some
sort.

  Hmm, what does the output of pfctl -sn -aslb look like on both
  boxes?  The other obvious question is, are the virtual addresses that
  front end your load balance pool CARP addresses?  If they aren't, then
  the secondary won't take them over on failover regardless of the load

  Hi Bill,
 
  The config was sync'd ok, I can see it on both boxes.  Below is a ps -ax
  from the secondary machine:
 
  # ps -ax |grep slb
  60083  ??  Ss 0:00.51 /usr/local/sbin/slbd -c/var/etc/slbd.conf -r5000
  65097  p0  RV 0:00.00 grep slb (tcsh)
 
  Looks to me like its running?  I tried editing the config and saving it
  like you suggest, and the ps -ax was then:
 
  # ps -ax | grep slb
  65407  ??  Ss 0:00.00 /usr/local/sbin/slbd -c/var/etc/slbd.conf -r5000
 
  Still nothing however when I reboot the primary...

  Can you confirm that the load balancer config sync'd over to the
  secondary?  Also, assuming it did, can you do a 'ps -ax |grep slb'
  from the shell?  I suspect it never started slbd after sync (as an
  interim workaround, you could try going to the load balancer page on
  the secondary and editing/saving the config).

  Hi There,
 
  Im using 1.2 RC2 on Intel boxes.  I have the load balancer setup and
 
 
  working, the two machines are syncing settings and the carp is working
  properly.  However, if I reboot the primary firewall the secondary takes
  over pings, but the load balancing doesnt work again until the primary 
  is
  back online.
 
 
  Everything seems to be ok, when the primary disappears, the ping drops 
  1
 
 
  packet, then the secondary carries on and everything runs ok.  The 
  servers
  on the lan interface of the firewall can route out to the internet fine
  whilst running with only the secondary firewall. The only thing not to
  work is the load balancer.
 
 
  Anyone have any ideas?
 
  I have it wired as:
 
  INTERNET --  PIX 515 PAIR -- 2X CISCO 3550-EMI -- PFSENSE PAIR -- 
  2X
 
 
  CISCO 3550-EMI -- LAN
 
 
  Each of the pix/pfsense are connected to seperate switches, which are 
  in
 
 
  turn linked together.
 
 
  Thanks in advance,
 
  Lee

[pfSense Support] SOEKRIS NET5501

2007-10-10 Thread Ryan L. Faircloth
I am new to Freebsd in general and pfSense I am using 1.2RC2 embedded on a 
Soekris Net5501, the unit has 4 nics which default to the vr driver. This is 
reporting as no vlan support an suggestions Soekris indicated these nics should 
support vlans. Can this be worked around at this time or do I need to look into 
Intel Pro+ adapters?

Thanks using your link I noticed in R7 this is supported is there anyway I can

Per 
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=vlanapropos=0sektion=0manpath=FreeBSD+6.2-RELEASEformat=html
vr(4) doesn't support oversize frames.  Without this support your
firewall will fragment frames - due to the issues this causes, we do
not support vlan configurations on hardware that isn't listed on the
vlan(4) man page.

[pfSense Support] Re: Asterisk and PfSense

2007-10-10 Thread Ugo Bellavance

Chris Bagnall wrote:

I have an asterisk server that is working mostly with SIP clients
behind NAT.  I'd like to put this asterisk server behind the PfSense to
benefit from QoS and added security, packages, etc.  However, I just
tested and I can't make it work with more than 2 clients at the time
(using 1-to-1 NAT).


Interesting. We have quite a few pfsense + asterisk deployments out there in 
precisely this configuration and everything works fine.

You've set up 1:1 NAT, that's fine. In pfSense, check that port 5060 is allowed 
(UDP) for SIP, and 1-2 are allowed (UDP) for RTP - assuming you haven't 
changed the port range in asterisk's rtp.conf

On the asterisk box, check your sip.conf file. You need the following:

localnet = 10.0.0.0/8
localnet = 172.16.0.0/12
localnet = 192.168.0.0/16
localnet = 169.254.0.0/16
externip = asterisk_true_external_ip

Substitute your real external 1:1 NAT IP into externip. The localnet entries 
tell asterisk that SIP packets from any of those address ranges should have 
their claimed IP ignored and their apparent IP/port used instead.

In each sip.conf device section, make sure nat=yes is included.

Hopefully that should solve your problems.

Regards,

Chris


It looks like it is going to work.  Will perform more test tomorrow, but 
it definitely looks good.

You mean FreeBSD 7?  Uh, no.  Not if you want to run pfSense.
