[pfSense Support] Bootup Complete - but no console
Running latest build of 2.0 on a Firebox x500 (just flashed 2 hours ago), totally clean. The box boots up and works fine-assigned LAN and WAN interfaces, no problem. The box responds to console input until you get to Bootup complete, and you never get the console menu. Webconfigurator works-- if you ssh in to the box and log in, you get the console menu-- but you never get it on the COM console, and the COM console does not respond to keyboard input of any kindbut that's the only thing that doesn't work, the box seems to be usable besides this. Odd... Any reasons why this might be? Dimitri Rodis Integrita Systems LLC http://www.integritasystems.com
[pfSense Support] Hardware for WAN interface - Frame Relay
Greetings, I need a router with a V.35 interface for my frame relay link. I found that ctau(4) driver in FreeBSD 8.x may handle this PCI card[1], so my question is: does pfSense 2.x support this card and may be used as WAN interface? I think so, since pfSense 2.x is based on FreeBSD 8.1 and keeps all driver, isn't it? Anybody using this card as WAN interface? I need the hardware provider too, by the way. Thanks in advance.

You will have to grab even sconfig utitlity for this and is not supported from the GUI. Than you can go and do some test on the PPP page for it. Anybody using this card as WAN interface?

Does he need all 5 tunnels to the same remote IP? Chris, could you briefly describe what mechanism is used in 2.0 to avoid this problem?

Ermal enhanced the GRE state tracking in PF so it tracks call ID in addition to source and destination IP, and tied the GRE states to the TCP 1723 states in the case of PPTP. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org

What you say is I must configure the channel parameters from the CLI (with sconfig) and then configure the WAN interface (cp0 in this case) as a PPP link from the GUI. Is that correct? In this case I must manually edit rc.conf for the channel settings at startup, rigth? I need to know if it is going to work because we don't have much money for spending in tests. Has anyone done this before? Should I take another box with FreeBSD 8.X or Linux as a router? A low cost router with V.35 interface perhaps? Any suggestion? Thanks for your help.
