15.7 Legacy Series / [ABANDONED] Having a weird issue with primarily UDP traffic
« on: August 02, 2015, 02:29:02 am »
Greetings all -
My first post on the forum. Wanted to start out by saying that aside from the issues I've had, things are working perfectly
I have OPNsense loaded on a virtual machine on my file server (KVM). I have 3 nic's in the server, and so I have two of the nics in bridge mode (separate bridges) with the adapters in the router. Internet is working great. Surfing, streaming music / videos etc all working great.
I do also use the captive portal (what got me going on this project in the first place away from DDWRT on a Linksys router). enabled on my LAN adapter only. That has had a few hiccups but by far and far its working GREAT.
So now thats the background. Here's the issue.
I have the servers and several of my main workstations (password protected) whitelisted in the captive portal, either by mac or by ip. I have an ATA (for VoIP) also whitelisted - I cannot get it to connect to my hosted Asterisk box (UDP port 5060). It tries and tries but never logs in. Asterisk doesn't even register an attempt.
Pinging through the router does not work either - timeout. I can do DNS lookups with an external DNS from a client machine - but just cannot ping them.
Cannot make Steam games work either. Ive been told the login is TCP but all the game play is UDP. I can login to Steam but cannot bring up an online game.
One I just discovered tonight is that I cannot do an NTP lookup from a client machine to 0.us.pool.ntp.org. If I plug that into the OPN box, and tell my client machine to use the router for NTP - works fine.
I am not sure whats going on - surfing, port forwarding etc all work fine. But am just having some weirdnesses happening.
Need some help!!
Thanks,
