Vyatta: how do I view up fixed DHCP leases settings?
I’d like to know how could I get the MAC-IP DHCP associations. I know that there is show dhcp leases but it only shows information about the active leases.

You can get it with : show service dhcp-server You can also see additional informations in ls /var/lib/dhcp3/* Answered by CloudWeavers Check more [...]

So I am currently migrating our office away from the current proxy (Squid running in Windows on our Mail server…I did not set it up…) to a new one, Squid running on Vyatta. So far I have everything setup and working perfectly, however im having trouble getting it to use two different DNS servers, one for internet (8.8.8.8) and another for internal domain name sites.

I am trying to create a bridge with ThreatStop, IPS and block a few ports. This bridge will sit in front of my servers. All is working apart from the IPS. I have read the documentation on configuring IPS, I have something configured that it hasn’t complained about and nothing is logged so I believe that it isn’t working. Is it possible to set-up IPS on a vyatta bridge? Also is it possible to read [...]

Im having a problem setting up Radius with Citrix Access Gateway. I had it all set up and working fine when I had the Citrix Access Gateway (CAG) on our main LAN but I want to move it into DMZ.

The firewall also provides [...]

We have been attempting to setup a Linux/BSD/etc box that can behave as both an internet gateway and as a router. I don’t know how to articulate our situation very well, so please forgive me… Currently we are using Vyatta with the following network interfaces (with masked IP addresses): eth0 -> x.x.x.178/30 – WAN (upstream router: x.x.x.177) vlan100 -> Attached to eth0 br100 -> y.y.y.1 – Bridges eth0.vlan100 and eth1 eth1 -> y.y.y.y/24 – Bridged [...]

I am trying to configure Vyatta to act as a wifi to ethernet bridge. I am currently doing this with my windows desktop but want to move it to a dedicated Vyatta box. I have a typical linksys wireless router that operates as my access point. The wireless card in the Vyatta box works just fine and is able to connect when it is configured as a normal wireless client. When I create the bridge [...]

I have 2 routers in a cabinet and would like to setup fail over between the two for our servers sort of like BGP but not BGP . I need to setup the system to realize gateway 1 is (down) or under attack and route through gateway 2 instead. How is this best done? We are going to use Vyatta or PFsense as our edge routers if you need to know. Vyatta supports VRRP, or [...]

We are considering getting a 1Gig rack from a DC and as a little bonus they throw in a /48 v6 for you. I figure this can be split so that each client has their own /64 to use as they please… The real question being has anyone used IPv6 with PFsense; I know it can be hacked it but is it stable or is it better to choose Vyatta instead? As far as I’m [...]
