Re: [pfSense] Traffic Graph: Not reflecting reality?
We recently relocated and are waiting to get our primary connection installed, so in the mean time we're on a 3Mb/0.75Mb DSL line. However, pfSense often shows 6Mb/s coming out of the LAN during a download. Same problem here. I am not seeing incorrect traffic graphs in 2.1, and I am using VLANs (LAN has its own NIC, but 3 WANs run in VLANs off a single NIC). I haven't noticed problems with traffic graphs on any of our clients' systems either (some of whom are running everything through a single port to a managed switch). For those seeing incorrect stats, has anyone tried slurping the data into Cacti or similar via SNMP, and does that also show incorrect figures?

Re: [pfSense] Traffic Graph: Not reflecting reality?
I see the same thing on my DMZ (local) interface. My LAN and all my WAN circuits show what I'd expect and the DMZ shows roughly double what is *actually* going in/out. I did a bunch of pcaps and tried to track down a bad setting with my VLANs or something and didn't come up with anything. I also have another pfSense box in the DMZ (in front of a large wireless network) and it shows correct information while the DMZ interface shows double.

Re: [pfSense] Traffic Graph: Not reflecting reality?
Agreed, could be VLAN related. My DMZ is a VLAN on the same switch all my WAN's are on - All use VLANs and only the one interface has the issue. For the record I have several WANs and Several DMZs on the same PHY, and as far as I have noticed so far only the one exhibits the issue, but I haven't thoroughly tested all of the other interfaces.
