pfSense » pfSense Packages

This evening got a strange idea related to the PIMD problem ..... what would happen if ...... I disable the interfaces treated more or less correctly

- so I disabled my guestlan and (vlan26)1

- I disabled my IoT-lan (vlan13)

That are two from this three

Jun 20 13:54:04 pfSense pimd[32235]: Disabling all vifs from kernel Jun 20 13:54:04 pfSense pimd[32235]: Installing lagg0.13 (192.168.13.1 on subnet 192.168.13) as vif #2 - rate 0 Jun 20 13:54:04 pfSense pimd[31825]: Installing lagg0.10 (192.168.10.1 on subnet 192.168.10) as vif #0 - rate 0 Jun 20 13:54:04 pfSense pimd[32235]: Installing lagg0.26 (192.168.2.1 on subnet 192.168.2) as vif #1 - rate 0

So and then

- kill pimd (pimd -q)

- start pimd (pimd -c /var/etc/pimd/pimd.conf -d -f -N)

And now see and be surprised. Now we have 7 recognised vifs, in state of the earlier 3 ......... of course still vifs missing That must be something to think about ??

And thank what ...... now I did enable the guestlan And now I have ....

18:54:00.758 Disabling all vifs from kernel Yep eight vlans with vifs

Becoming interested I decided to activate the IoT lan as well lets see what happens And now .....

So lets do a reboot

And the problem is back ..........

So something in the bootcyclus is spooling everything .......

Has of course nothing to do with the pimd configuration file, given the fact that the pimd.conf only becomes interesting after installing the vifs .....

So lets do a final test, reboot with the two interfaces disabled Jun 23 19:11:39 pfSense pimd[92845]: Cannot forward: no enabled vifs Jun 23 19:11:39 pfSense pimd[92845]: Local static RP: 169.254.0.1, group 232.0.0.0/8 Jun 23 19:11:39 pfSense pimd[92845]: Local static RP: 192.168.14.15, group 224.0.0.0/4 Jun 23 19:11:39 pfSense pimd[92845]: /var/etc/pimd/pimd.conf:10 - Invalid phyint address 'ix0.14'

Again not ok

So something in the boot sequence is killing the "assign vif" process .......

Question is ...... what is going wrong ..........

Two pimd evens in parallel !!??

Jun 23 19:11:35 pfSense pimd[14821]: pimd version 2.3.2 starting ...

By the way no even a "light smell" from IPV6 ......
