Tell them to use a worthwhile browser. The reason the SVG graphs don't work is because IE is the only browser that doesn't come with SVG integrated and for whatever reason the plugin has issues if you force authentication with HTTPS. See the 1.2.2 release announcement for details. This is a known problem with IE, and the only way to fix it is to not require authentication to see the graphs. We're not going to do that for the sake of supporting IE. > Am I correct in my > understanding that the auth is NOT sent across the network in clear text > even when using HTTP? > No. > 2 > Question: Is the traffic shaper the same between 1.2 and 1.2.1 & 1.2.2 Not a single thing in the RELENG_1_2 branch with the shaper has changed since before 1.2. > Is 1.2.2 > Still using PF?

Wow, the chance of anyone with a commit bit even remotely considering iptables is beyond absurd.

The application that was used was specific to the 4801. I believe it was removed entirely between 1.2 and 1.2.1, but I don't recall details. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
