Title: Upload count as download on LAN interface. (Closed)
Post by: easyronny on June 07, 2022, 10:07:20 am
Dear,

When I look at my current OPNSense configuration e.g. at the Dashboard but also in Zenarmor I see something strange at least it looks like it to me.

My download count on my LAN interface seems to be seen as upload and my upload seems to be seen as download. What have I configured wrong, on the WAN interface the values seem to be correct. Besides some port forwards I have not changed very much in my firewall configuration. But maybe I'm overlooking something, after all I'm not very experienced with opnsense.


Is this normal behavior of opnsense?


Many thanks for the time and responses,

With kind regards,
ERonny

How do you know if the values on the WAN interface are not the other way round?

This morning I was alone online on my network, so i started a download of a single file from a website of 15GB.

After which the download count on the WAN connection increased with 15GB.
Then I looked at the live counts on my LAN connection, and on that the upload increased by 15GB.

Yes, the WAN downloaded it from whatever server you received it from and the LAN uploaded it to the PC... sounds correct to me.

Exactly. What is received (in) on the WAN-interface is send (out) on the LAN-interface. So no misconfiguration.
