Hello,

I am trying to deploy a FreeBSD6 machine using if_bridge and pf to
provide some protection for our Windows servers ;)

During testing it seemed to work fine, but in production it panics frequent=
ly.

When I came in to work this morning it was complaining about mbufs, so
I have tried increasing the number of mbufs as explained in various
places around the web. Despite the fact that it didn't seem to be
getting near the limit of mbufs I set (8192) it has paniced another
couple of times this morning already. I have now set it to 16k, but I
don't currently hold much hope of this fixing it.

The machine is a Dell Poweredge server which until recently was our
Exchange server which ran with no problems, so I do not suspect
hardware - except possibly the network cards I have added. (I added an
fxp card last night before deploying it, the other cards are an
onboard em and two PCI xl. The fxp and xl cards are bridged, the em
card is used for management.)

I have a selection of pf rules declared against the xl0 and fxp0
interfaces (which represent two feeds from our border router). xl1 is
connected to a switch with our external-facing servers on it. (Is this
the problem? Should I separate the two subnets on the 'internal' side
of the bridge too?)

Anyway, on to the debug output!

Now I look at it, the two panics are quite dissimilar. Should I
suspect the network cards?

Another dump previous to that one occured in irq18: fxp0. Now I'm
suspicious. (Excuse my thinking out loud.)

Other than pulling cards and seeing which ones stop it panicing, can
anyone suggest things that may be going wrong? Is the combination of
if_bridge and pf used in this fashion valid?

Thanks,
James
