Also having problems with olsrd running on pfsense. Upgraded to the olsr 0.4.10 version and this seemed to stabilize it and give it the latest features. Also, if you want to modify the configs, you can edit the /etc/inc/services.inc file (towards the end). Not sure if this is "acceptable" but was able to play around with different settings this way.
I also ran into a funny problem where the pfsense box didn't issue the proper olsrd packets in the expected time periods. I had set the hna and mid, tc, and hello packets to 2 seconds with validity of 120. But when I did a tcpdump, there were only 8 packets about every 30-45 seconds. Not what I was expecting... The other units I have (not pfsense) running olsrd sent packets as expected. So, I couldnt' figure out if pfsense was "caching" the packets somehow? Didn't make any sense. I did have traffic shaping turned on, but I disabled it and same results.. Just to add to the list of issues... :-( Michael Oh On 1/29/07, Pablo Montoro Escaño <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
We are working with WRAP 2C boards with OLSR and we are having a lot of problems. We have checked through the forums all the conversations about this but we haven't found any solution. We are using them with a WIFI at 5 GHz in the olsr, one ethernet, and one WIFI at 2,4 Ghz in which we don't have olsr. We are trying to fix problems on the code but we haven't found yet the solutions. We leave you here three problems we have found just in case you already have the solution, or if we could help in any way to fix them: 1.- We configure two equipments separately with olsr. Olsr don't create the routes if we don't reboot the equipment or restart olsr when the antennas are communicated. 2. - In a point to point link, with a correct route table. When there is no traffic during a while (30 minutes aprox.), in one of both equipment (pfsense that don't announce itself as gateway) the routes disappears. But, if the traffic is kept up (for example, with icmp traffic, doing pings constantly), the routes doesn't disappear. 3. - The HNA4 routes doesn't work. When we fill at the GUI the field "Announce Dynamic local route" we see that the olsrd.conf file appears well configured with the routes at HNA4. But instead of working these routes... all the routes crash! The olsrd process continue running, but as if it wasn't running. It seems that any olsr traffic doesn't pass, and there are no routes at all. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
