24.7 Production Series / Question about ddclient; force update (free and accountless dyndns)

« on: August 20, 2024, 07:15:25 pm »

Hi,

I'm using ddclient to update the free and accountless https://myaddr.tools dynamic entry, they require the IP to be updated at least once every 90 days or else they delete that stale entry from their record.

I tried to find the information but I could not find it in the official documentation, does ddclient force update at regular interval even if IP of WAN doesn't change? If yes how often? If no, how can I do that? Cron to restart the service at interval?

For reference, if someone want to use that service too I use the native backend (to have http get) and created a Custom GET with the following URL in Server :

Code: [Select]

https://ipv4.myaddr.tools/update?key=<private_key_myaddr.tools_provide>&ip=__MYIP__Since the creation of the DynamicDNS require a username and password I just put anything since it's irrelevant for that service. In hostname I entered the hostname I choose when creating the privatekey, again irrelevant for the update itself, since the private key takes care of that, but it's required by ddclient.

Nevermind I solved my problem... It was the vmware NSX-V router screwwing thing up ...

I changed the default admin distance of the gateway to 19 then made a static route for the other side subnet in the nsx-v with a admin distance of 1 and deleted the static route in my vm and it just worked.

I knew OPNsense was doing its job!

24.7 Production Series / [SOLVED] Wireguard routing problem, I need idea!

« on: August 02, 2024, 05:31:12 pm »

Here is my problem at the moment.

I have a wireguard tunnel between two places, the tunnel works to an extend... Pings can flow through in both directions, tcp though can only flow in one direction and I really don't understand what is happening.

My OPNsense doesn't have a WAN interface, it's a wireguard gateway with a LAN interface and a wireguard interface. OPNsense has a gateway and that gateway is also the gateway of the hosts behind the problematic side of the tunnel.

So I have
10.65.87.1 (default gateway)
10.65.87.2 (OPNsense LAN)
10.65.87.21 (host that is trying to establish a tcp connection to the other side of the tunnel)
Routes of that host

Code: [Select]

$ ip r
default via 10.65.87.1 dev ens160 proto static
10.65.87.0/24 dev ens160 proto kernel scope link src 10.65.87.21
10.65.89.0/24 via 10.65.87.2 dev ens160 proto static
10.65.90.0/24 via 10.65.87.2 dev ens160 proto static
172.17.0.0/16 dev docker0 proto kernel scope link src 172.17.0.1 linkdown
172.18.0.0/16 dev br_pspdfkit_net proto kernel scope link src 172.18.0.1
Firewall rules on both side of the tunnel are wide open for now
Allow IPv4 * Source * Destination * everything *

I'm doing the following command on the 10.65.87.21 host : curl https:// 10.65.89.10:8006
(Inserted a space here to avoid the forum from creating a hyperlink)

Here is the capture done on the LAN interface on OPNsense, so packets do traverse the tunnel and get into the lan interface.

General Discussion / Routing VLAN through WireGuard tunnel to a VPS then do NAT

« on: January 15, 2023, 02:34:09 am »

Hi!

Here is what I want to do. I have a WireGuard tunnel established to a VPS and I can ping the VPS from my LAN and also the VLAN I want to route through the tunnel. The ping is going through both ways without NAT pure routing.

I would like to force a VLAN to go through the tunnel to access Internet but I'm missing one last part I believe. Here is how it is setup at the moment.

WG IPs: 10.2.3.1 (VPS), 10.2.3.2 (OPNsense client)
LAN IPs: 10.20.30.1/24
VLAN IPs: 10.200.300.1/24

On the VPS WireGuard AllowedIPs include both LAN and VLAN subnets.
On the OPNsense side AllowedIPs is only 10.2.3.0/24

I created a Gateway like that
  Interface: WG Interface
  Gateway: 10.2.3.1

Then I create a Firewall Rule in the VLAN section to allow all and then set the gateway to the new one I created.

I did not create a NAT rule as I don't think I need one, the VPS is going to do nat, I want pure routing if possible between my devices on the VLAN all the way to the VPS then when it need to exit to Internet the VPS is going to do the natting.

I traced packets on the VLAN interface and the WG Interface and I can see the packets entering those interfaces. When I trace on the VPS the WG interface I can see the packets if the client on the VLAN is pinging the VPS WG IP, but if the client tries to ping let's say 1.1.1.1 I don't see any packets. Like if WireGuard does not route the trafic trough.

Resuming what I can see on the trace.
VLAN Client 10.200.300.128 ping 1.1.1.1
On the VLAN interface on OPNsense I see :

• 10.200.300.128 > 1.1.1.1 ICMP echo request
• no reply

On the WG interface on OPNsense I see :

• 10.200.300.128 > 1.1.1.1 ICMP echo request
• no reply

On the WG interface on the VPS I see :

• nothing

VLAN Client 10.200.300.128 ping 10.2.3.1 (The VPS WG IP Address)
On the VLAN interface on OPNsense I see :

• 10.200.300.128 > 10.2.3.1 ICMP echo request
• 10.2.3.1 > 10.200.300.128 ICMP echo reply

On the WG interface on OPNsense I see :

• 10.200.300.128 > 10.2.3.1 ICMP echo request
• 10.2.3.1 > 10.200.300.128 ICMP echo reply

On the WG interface on the VPS I see :

• 10.200.300.128 > 10.2.3.1 ICMP echo request
• 10.2.3.1 > 10.200.300.128 ICMP echo reply

General Discussion / IPv6 DHCPv6 Relay help

« on: January 12, 2023, 01:24:58 am »

Hi,

I have a friend that need to install OPNsense behind his ISP device. The device need to be kept for phone and TV purpose. However he would like to use OPNsense for his own network. His provider is giving him GCNAT IPv4 + Native IPv6 to the ISP box. Once we connect OPNsense on a lan port of the ISP box the WAN receive a DHCPv6 address in the same /64 as the isp box. In fact the WAN address is being given a /128 I don't know why. The ISP box status seems to say that it has received a /56. I can confirm that trafic for every /64 under the /56 is being routed to the isp box.

Enough of the backstory! Here is the problem. We tried WAN DHCPv6 and ask for a /64 delegation and LAN Track WAN Interface. It's a no go, LAN doesn't get an IPv6.

We tried to enable DHCPv6 Relay on the LAN by giving one of the /64 address from the /56. I packet capture the WAN while forcing a DHCPv6 client on the LAN to request an address and the relay packets are being sent to the box, but no answer...

Which IP addresses should we setup for the WAN and the LAN and eventially the LAB and enable DHCPv6 Relay and have it work?

I'm also wondering if we'll even be able to have a separate LAN and LAB because I'm wondering how are we gonna tel the isp box that it need to route the trafic of that /64 to the WAN on OPNsense?

Here are an example of what the IPv6 addresses look like at the moment.
ISP Box status tell us we have a delegation looking like that : 2001:1234:5678:99::/56
ISP Box LAN address: 2001:1234:5678:9901::1/64
ISP Box deliver DHCPv6 in that range.

We tried giving the OPNsense LAN IPv6 : 2001:1234:5678:99bb::1/64
Then enable DHCPv6 Relay on the LAN interface. The capture on the WAN was showing all the right address and was showing relaying to 2001:1234:5678:9901::1 as instructed.

We looked everywhere at example on how to successfully setup DHCPv6 Relay on LAN.

Can anyone please help?

French - Français / Re: Aller sur un serveur d'un VPN IPsec depuis un client OPENVPN

« on: January 11, 2023, 05:57:00 pm »

Dans la configuration de ton tunnel IPSec tu dois ajouter une Phase 2 qui inclus tes adresses OpenVPN.
Tu dois nécessairement ajouter cette phase 2 des deux côtés du tunnel IPSec.

Si tu n'as pas accès à reconfigurer l'autre côté du tunnel il est peut-être possible de le faire avec de la NAT de Sortie (Firewall -> NAT -> Outbound) avec une règle manuelle, mais je ne l'ai jamais fait comme ça et c'est toujours mieux de router le trafic plutout que le natter.

Hardware and Performance / Re: WAN performance issue

« on: November 09, 2021, 02:05:45 am »

Yeah I saw your post, since it was for a Chelsea, if I remember correctly, I didn't want to hijack your thread.

I have a QLogic NetXtreme II BCM57810 10GbE. It's one of those card that is "compatible" with the sfp my isp install in their equipment. So I took it out installed it in that card, modified the bios of the card a little to allow 2.5 GBps link and modified and recompiled the driver to allow the driver to link at 2.5 Gbps also.

If I could find a good Linux equivalent to OPNsense/pfSense I'd go with that probably. I've learned that pppoe under FreeBSD is single threaded. I have a TrueNAS also and it too is struggeling with 10 Gbps. I can only hit about 5 Gbps with it.

I really hope we can find a solution to this performance problem. I kind of really like OPNsense. I've spent too many years to be able to count with pfSense, but since they changed the way they handle their business I wanted to change for OPNsense, when I crashed my pfSense I saw the perfect opportunity to switch. Loosing more than 25% of performance is not an option though.

Hardware and Performance / WAN performance issue

« on: November 08, 2021, 03:04:16 pm »

I have 1.5 Gbps internet. My NIC host the GPON from my provider and I have a modded driver that allow OPNsense to link at 2500 Mbps. All that is working, but my speed isn't on par with what I was easily getting with pfSense with the same exact hardware. I'm wondering which settings I need to adjust to get my speed back.

Is can do a speedtest that will show 1400 Mbps and the next one seconds after the first will show 1000 Mbps. The speed is very inconsistent. The speed also ramps up slowly, where with pfSense the speed was instantaneous.

When I download on Usenet, I was getting consistently 1.5 Gbps speed, but with OPNsense I cannot get faster than 1 Gbps.

I have no IDS and anything other than basic firewall rules enabled. I did try to create a trafic shaper with fq_codel, but I deleted eveything in that section since I was still having speed problem.

Here is the dmesg regarding that nic.

root@OPNsense:~ # dmesg | grep bxe0

The same nic has two ports avec un LAN port has a 10 Gbps connection to my 10 Gb switch and tested the speed between my server and the LAN port and I was only getting 1.5 Gbps. SOmething in the optimization of that nic is missing.

Please help!
