[long outstanding update to my issue]

Strange enough it was a firewall (palo alto) om the same vlan that was interfering with the traffic...
after some additional allow rules on that firewall traffic was flowing steady

16.1 Legacy Series / Re: captive portal reports mac address change for sessions

« on: July 15, 2016, 12:11:38 pm »

was thinking the same this morning underway to work, that it probably was the arp cache that cleans out the entries (after 20 min validated and not in use, as described in the arp man page)

you could also use the dhcp lease file to check the arp mappings, but then again the captive portal does not necessarily run the dhcp server...

I've successfully applied the patch and will let you know if things go awry

Tnx for the quick fix

The (incomplete) seems to come from the output of arp -an that sometimes occurs?
in the interfaces/list_arp.py file line 60 it's removed from the output which is used to display the arp table under interface diagnostics...

this is not the case in the CaptivePortal/lib/arp.py which is used in the captive portal

in cp-background-process.py i replaced line 147 with:

Code: [Select]

syslog.syslog(syslog.LOG_NOTICE, "mac address (current:%s db:%s) changed for session %s" % (current_arp['mac'], db_client['macAddress'], db_client['sessionId'))

i now get log entries like:

Code: [Select]

OPNsense captiveportal: mac address (current:(incomplete) db:40:74:3a:24:da:9e) changed for session neHPP8N/vyZWxb9d2XgI0w==

looks like something is wrong with the value in current_arp['mac'] as the value is "incomplete"

I have not searched yet where it's should be set...

note: since i replaced line 147 the users aren't complaining anymore

16.1 Legacy Series / [SOLVED] OpenVPN - Captive portal user connection problem

« on: July 13, 2016, 11:35:55 pm »

Hey OPNsense community,

First of thank you for the this great piece of software. The simplicity of configuring the features and the clean interface is fantastic, makes me remember the good old m0n0wall days 

I hope someone can help me troubleshoot a issue i have between 2 OPNSense boxes...
One box is setup as OpenVPN appliance which is used for remote connection (road wariors) and the other one is a captive portal for our users and visitors...
Both boxes are deployed as a VM on Xenserver (with xen addon installed) and running the latest stable (atm 16.1.18-amd64)

The services work perfectly standalone but users on the captive portal arent't able to connect to the openVPN. One would think it would be a missing firewall rule but I sadly that's not it...   

Not sure if i still have some configuration problem, or are hitting a bug (on xenserver/opnsense/...) 

any help is greatly appreciated!

Below i have some notes and logging. It shows the Captive portal user gets trough to the OpenVPN box and the OpenVPN sends packets back to the Captive portal but i don't see the packets incoming on it's WAN interface...


Details:
Version: OPNsense 16.1.18-amd64 (on Xenserver)
Captive Portal ip: 1.2.3.4/26
OpenVPN ip: 1.2.3.5/26

Note: yes, the OpenVPN has only 1 interface

I experience the same behavior, but it's hard to reproduce 

i have patched the cp-background-process.py file to get some more logging on what goes wrong
