Can you try with another card?
It seems to behave ok to me.

Nope only got intel nic that works with pfSense.

Try creating the vlans over lagg and after that assign even the lagg interface and add a firewall rule to allow traffic.
Does this solve the problem for you?

Im the original topic starter on th forum.
I ahve tested with 2 intel nics (more precise, its an dual nic card). I did some testes and the results were:
2 nics -> lagg, no vlan: works.
2 nics -> lagg, adding an vlan: No traffic over the vlan, traffic over the parent lagg interface works.
2 nics -> lagg, only vlans: No traffic over the vlans, but arp requests work.

Confirmed it works with non-em NICs. The underlying configuration is correct, problem in em driver.

Can you please try newer pfSense 2.0 builds.
It should be fixed by the jump to 8-STABLE as FreeBSD code base.

I just tried with the latest snapshot (pfSense-Full-Update-2.0-BETA1-20100125-2045.tgz).
It still hangs when assigning the interface, but at reboot it shows up. and i can configure it. after that still only arp packets, a ping won't come trough.

Patch committed to the build because this is a FreeBSD issue.
Report back...after a new build is available.

How do you mean a new build? a new FreebSD build as in 8_1 or just a new snapshot? Or just give me a nudge when u can try again :-)

I think i have to congratulate you!
It Works! :-)

But, how did you fix it/Where was the problem?

Actions #13

Updated by Perry Mason about 14 years ago

Could also create a working failover link with em nics, though a reboot was needed.
