Hi;

I have 2 links with 2 different ISPs on this firewall.

On one link, everything is normal

[~]>ping www.google.com

on the other, I get this:

FreeBSD FreeBSD 8.3-STABLE #0 r204106 Wed Sep 17 10:28:45 BRT 2014

last pid:  6963;  load averages:  0.00,  0.00,0.00   
19:47:29 61 processes:  1 running, 60 sleeping 
CPU:  0.0% user,  0.0% nice,  0.2% system,  0.1% interrupt,  99.7% idle 
Mem: 210M Active, 
     3933M Inact, 
     1559M Wired, 
     516K Cache, 
     771M Buf, 
     1671M Free 
Swap: 16G Total, 16G Free

This was at 7:oo PM but even during peak work ours it doesn't go lower
than 88% idle when it peaks usage.

I have one squid for each link with exactly the same configs and pf
doing the round-robin between the two.

This server has never done this before!. I've been googling around and
tried a few suggestions but none really solved it.

I have already set kern.ipc.nmbclusters from 32768 to 131072. It seemed
to delay the "no buffer" message but it's back.

My stats seem to me to be well bellow the limits.

[~]>netstat -m

0 requests for sfbufs denied
0 requests for sfbufs delayed

0 calls to protocol drain routines

I already rebooted and switched cables. The only thing I didnt do yet
was to switch boards. Should I be looking into that?

Any advice?

Thanks,
