23.7 Legacy Series / Allow LAN1 to access devices on LAN2

« on: December 29, 2023, 06:56:48 pm »

My LAN1 network 192.168.1.1 and LAN2 is 192.168.18.1
I have an AP and a server running in LAN2 i would like to access from LAN1.
I see a lot of results for this but people usually need blocking or specific ip accessing specific ip.
I have named LAN2 network AP. I tried to add rule in LAN1 but i keep messing because i don't know if i need to use LAN net LAN address etc same for AP net AP address...
I am the sole user of this network so i would like all these devices to be able to communicate between them, maybe even make a network dir on the server to share with the TV etc.

AHA ok now i understand how this works. Digging around i have currently found a way to add latency from bash:

ipfw pipe 1 config delay 15ms
ipfw pipe 2 config delay 15ms
ipfw add 15 pipe 1 all from any to any in via igb0
ipfw add 15 pipe 2 all from any to any out via igb0

15ms in and 15ms out + my real ping

Do you think this is correct, i mean can i use this just to add delay and not drop anything ?
BTW how can i delete all i did in the "Shaper" category?

Nice yes i have tried its working the problem i have is that it also drops a lot of packets. It used to drop a few on my isp router but it seems since i activated this queue it drops 2 or 3 times more. Anyway man thanks for the help this is what i wanted. Are there any other queues i can use instea of fq codel?

Oh OK i can see where i failed now, the tutorial is very good thank you very much for this. I will test high ping for inline FPS games because you know... lagcompensation, my real ping is always 5ms and i get crippled by network algorithm a lot, specially notable in games like Counter-Strike 2. One more question, if i only want outbound lag i just leave enabled the "Out" rule?

Thanks for the reply i just gave it a try and it seems i don't know how to successfully add a rule to delay the packets, could you share an example ? My line is 350/300 MB i don't mind to have bandwidth limit ON, that way i don't exceed the line speed and lose packets when downloading etc.

Hello guys! I am new here i just installed OPNsense on a xeon machine i had laying around and everything pretty much works without issues. I am wondering how can i add artificial latency to the WAN interface. On my last router which had linux installed i was using these commands in order to add or remove the latency.

sudo tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem delay 50ms
sudo tc qdisc del dev eth0 root netem

I did find dummynet but i really don't have a clue how to use it, all the delay examples are from 15 years ago and my english is not so good. I just need a little help please, i know how to move around in console and i know my WAN interface name is igb0 so that's not really an issue. Also is it possible to add the delay only for outbound packets?
