Sorry for double posting, as I just posted this question at:
http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,35019.0.html
but this is critical and urgent for me. Hope somebody can help me.
I have two pfSense (2.0RC1 built on Sat Feb 26 18:07:23 EST 2011 )
boxes in failover mode. The WAN IP address has been set as a Carp IP
address and everything works fine when you browse the internet.
Until you try to do a download.
When downloading a file, after a while, it stalls. On the LAN side, with
a tcpdump I can see that the server on the internet just stopped sending
packets.
On the WAN side, with the capture I see that suddenly pfSense stops
passing data back to the LAN client and starts sending packets like the
following one to the internet server:
8:13:54.058314 IP 1.1.1.1 > pub4.kernel.org: ICMP host 1.1.1.1
unreachable, length 60
(1.1.1.1 is my WAN IP addres, which I edited for privacy reasons). This
example is when downloading a kernel source tarball from kernel.org.
Everything points that, after a while (something running periodically?)
the state of the connection is lost and pfSense for some reason can't
recognize the CARP ip as a valid ip address.
Any help will be appreciated.
