Re: [pfSense Support] does pfSense cache?

2007-11-21 Thread Bill Marquette
Are you resetting the modem after moving the laptop? Most cable modems are locked to a single MAC address on the ethernet side and will only allow the first device seen after power on. Outside of that, I can only see us caching if you are using the squid proxy package. --Bill On Nov 19, 2007

Likely because carp passwords are only there to protect from misconfiguration, not to actually protect your network. The password is used to create a (replayable) hash that all systems in the carp cluster agree on. We'll consider the patch all the same as it's a good idea :) --Bill On Nov 19,

Unfortunately we have no way (today) of performing QOS inside the tunnel. This is due to how IPSec in the FreeBSD kernel works and how altq works. Also, the enc(4) interface can only block traffic inbound to the firewall over the tunnel. --Bill On Nov 13, 2007 4:25 PM, Wade Blackwell [EMAIL
