Description

Netgate SG-2100
21.02.2-RELEASE (arm64)

I have a cable modem plugged into WAN getting a DHCP address from a provider.

I have the 4 port switch configured each with their own VLAN. I followed the SG2100 guide. All except port 1. I left port one as an access port, and lan port, and left it alone.

Here is a copy and paste:

SG-2100 Switch 802.1Q VLANs
EnableEnable 802.1q VLAN mode
If enabled, packets with unknown VLAN tags will be dropped.
VLAN table
VLAN group VLAN tag Members Description Action
0 1 1,5 Default System VLANDefault System VLAN
1 4084 4,5t LAN Switch Port 4
2 4083 3,5t LAN Switch Port 3
3 4082 2,5t LAN Switch Port 2

LAN1 - mvneta1

LAN4VZW - VLAN 4084 on mvneta1

WAN - mvneta0

When I pull the cable from the WAN. The TCP OpenVPN running over LAN4VZW stops instantly, and will not work again until I plug the cable back into the WAN.

I tested just internet failure, and leaving the interface up. I had someone unscrew the coax from the back of the modem, and let the gateway fail, and the VPN did not stop working running over LAN4VZW.

I also tested the reverse. If I unplug a cable from LAN4VZW, the VPN on WAN keeps on trucking.

VPN on WAN:
WAN UDP4 / 45465
(TUN)

VPN on LAN4VZW:
LAN4VZW TCP4 / 45465
(TUN)

Both have the same mode:

Mode: Remote Access ( SSL/TLS + User Auth )
Data Ciphers: AES-256-GCM, AES-128-GCM, CHACHA20-POLY1305, AES-256-CBC
Digest: SHA1
D-H Params: 4096 bits

Different users/same users, makes no difference.

tun layer 3 vpn/tcp on ipv4 only with the specific interface selected in each config respectivly.

subnet topology with different unused /24 subnets dedicated to each VPN.

Gateway creation ipv4 only.

Not enough information here to rule out a configuration problem. In certain cases the behavior you describe is expected, but that depends on more specific aspects of your configuration/environment. This site is not for support or diagnostic discussion, however, so it is not the proper place to go over that.

For assistance in solving problems, please post on the Netgate Forum or the pfSense Subreddit .

See Reporting Issues with pfSense Software for more information.

Well,

I have 19 other netgate routers configured the same, and they do not do this. Same config.

Only this model of router.

Do you need the config?

It is pretty simple.

It is pretty simple.

What OpenVPN protocol are you using? UDP/TCP or UDP/TCP multihome?
Please pull the WAN cable and post the last ~30 lines of the `/var/log/system.log` here.

UDP ipv4

It seems to work better if their is a static assigned to WAN, but not scientific test. Will test here soon, ISP is having issues getting static assigned.

here is some info:

I lied about the static. Still no dice.
