I'm trying to get a reasonable QoS setup for my 25/2 cable internet connection. There's great docs for setting up regular QoS rules, but since DSCP support was removed I think I need something more robust for my needs. And, I love the idea of never having to tweak the rules for specific apps :D

For reference, an unshaped result from flent rrul -p all_scaled -l 60:



I then set up:


  • A downstream pipe with a cap of 20600Kbps, a source mask, the FlowQueue-Codel scheduler, Codel enabled,no ECN as I read that's detrimental at under an upstream of 4Mbits.
  • An upstream pipe set to 1500Kbps, with a destination mask, and the same queue and Codel settings
  • No queues as my understanding from the help text is those are automatic when masks are set.
  • Two rules with source and destination networks to associate traffic with each pipe.



Latency is vastly improved, though I'm curious about the spike I'm getting at the very end. What I'm more concerned about are the gaps in the upload graph. I expected with setting the pipes significantly lower than my actual connection I wouldn't see any missing traffic. They're still there even with lower caps on the pipes. I haven't seen any similar results from others, so I'm not sure how to interpret this. Any ideas?

It was pfSense-CE-memstick-serial-2.3.2-RELEASE-amd64.img.gz that was able to boot for me.

General Discussion / Serial console character settings
December 24, 2016, 03:11:45 AM
What terminal type / character settings should I use with the serial console? I've tried:


  • screen under OS X and Linux
  • minicom under OS X and Linux
  • The OS X Terminal app and iTerm2
  • Serial on OS X
  • Putty on Windows

The APU2 BIOS and the regular shell prompt after an install seem OK. I've tried a variety of UTF / ISO character settings, TERM=ansi, vt100, xterm. No matter what, I always get misrepresented characters in the installer menus. Putty + UTF-8 + TERM=xterm seems to be the closest, but still has some mismapped characters.

Thanks!

17.1 Legacy Series / Unable to boot with USB 3 on APU2
December 24, 2016, 01:45:12 AM
I have an APU2 running the apu2_160307 BIOS (I don't need PXE boot so I haven't bothered to upgrade). I'm unable to boot either 16.7 or 17.1 with a USB 3 stick (I've tried two separate ones). If I use a USB 2 stick in the USB 3 ports, it's fine. I am able to boot pfsense, though it throws a small number of similar CAM status errors. I thought set kern.cam.boot_delay was supposed to work around this, but it isn't for me. I've attached the boot logs. Since I haven't actually set up the router yet, if there's anything I can test out the next few days are best. Though, this totally seems like a FreeBSD and not opnsense issue.
