 That indicates the errors are related to the load, rather than
 something like a duplex mismatch.

 Have you tried polling? Checkbox in System - Advanced.

doesn't help much in the latest releases of FreeBSD.

 10kpps - 20% CPU
 50kpps - 100% CPU
 looks like we have some logic here. I've looked at my graphs - there is no
 relation between cpu load and pps. Do you have this relation? Not talking
 about your extreme case 50kpps, generally - when load fluctuates let's say
 10 to 15kpps, does you cpu load also goes higher/lower?

 I experienced 100% CPU only in two cases:
 1) Multicast went from LAN to WAN and caused storm (in carped setup)
 2) There is known bug with slbd.

 I'm attaching links to the RRD graphs from the same period.

Please remember that the CPU is at 25% because I have 8 cores. So it's 2
cores, each 100% emX taskq.

Why do i need to scroll past all previous teks i read just few seconds

If i need to read it, then i could scroll down, but rarely there is need

I think that top-posting is better or simpler
top-posting is more natural, everything in the nature that is newer
is on the top ... this is what we as first see

on the other hand we are more trained to read from top to bottom,
the newest words in a message are on the bottom...
we write from top to bottom...

just my 20ct

[pfSense Support] Help on Simple FailOver Scenario (Dual Wan)

2009-07-30 Thread Dinis

Hi,

I have just posted a help request on pfSense Forum but I don't know if  
this list is watching the forum itself and all help is appreciated.


I have built a simple FailOver Scenario but I can't get it to work.

I know I need to add a FailOver Pool and Add rules to the LAN  
Interface and finally, add NAT rules, but...


Can someone help me please on this?

http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,18136.0.html

Thanks in advance

PS: Yes I have readed [http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/MultiWanVersion1.2 
], but maybe I've missed something

I agree with Eugen.   Folks, this is the lists rules.  If you do not
like it I kindly ask you to go to the forum and participate there.

It's either that or I will stop reading these lists altogether.

Bottom post or do not post at all.  Thanks.

Scott
PS: my kill bit is armed and folks that continue to do so will be
removed from the list.  Sorry to be harsh but I have had enough with
this subject.  Thanks.

Actually I've never tried with this server. Only with the old one and then
the interrupt was pretty high.
But I remember you and the other guys advised against using Broadcom in
favor of Intel.

Are you suspecting the NIC itself? Or the driver?

Driver, maybe in combination with that specific NIC model.

I would think you should stay with what you have, the RC's are always pretty 
high quality and then you can compare results directly with what happened using 
the Intel NIC.  If you change the pfSense version then the comparison fails 
because of different software and all that.

  What I am trying to understand here is how should it work?
  'IGMP proxy' means that it should proxy IGMP-packets. Ok, now I got 
  it working with some modification of its code.
  Now IGMP from downstream interface is proxied to upstream interface.
  Device on upstream interface start multicasting on this network segment,
  so pfSense starts receiving multicast stream on upstream interface. 
  Now the question, what should happen with these multicast packets?
  1) kernel shoud route them to downstream interface.
  2) igmpproxy should be receiving them and transmitting on downstream 
  interface.
  Your thoughts please?
 
 
 Yeah kernel should do the routing.
 I think there might be a sysctl for alloing multicast 
 forwarding to work but that should be activated when you 
 create the socket(to be verified!).
 
 I will give it a look soon and find the solution that feets all.
 
 Though on 2.0 based on 8.0 freebsd it works without as it is.
 
I was stupid enough sending multicast UDP traffic with TTL=1 (although settings 
in my player were telling me 10).
Everything is working fine now.
No static routes needed.
Multicast routing is done by kernel. Upstream interface starts receiving mcast 
packets as soon as you call setsockopt(UdpSock, IPPROTO_IP, IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP 
... ). Downstream interface starts transmitting mcast packets as soon as you 
call setsockopt( MRouterFD, IPPROTO_IP, MRT_ADD_MFC, ...). 
The code of igmpproxy is heavily inherited from mrouted and actual proxying of 
IGMP-packets does not happen. It is not a problem if mcast sender on upstream 
interface does not care about memberships and just multicasts always, but if it 
is wise sender, or if sender is located in several routers upstream then IGMP 
is needed. So I fixed this small issue for 1.2.2 (I have only this development 
version). There was another problem with understanding interfaces consisting of 
more than 3 letters (em1 - ok, bge1 - can't start), also fixed. Could somebody 
validate and put my several lines of code in repository please? How does it 
work at all - if somebody found solution for some problem, what to do?

Thank you.
Eugene.

A good MUA will hide the quoted text.  Thus allowing you to see
context of interleaved comments when you wish to.  A good poster will
also trim crap that isn't pertinent to his message or doesn't provide
any contextual value.  As Michael notes, people read top to bottom, I
don't want to read something, wonder what the hell it's about and
scroll to the bottom to figure it out, I'll just move on.
