Problems with PPPOE interfaces since update v9.6

Pascal G

Hello,

So I currently have a problem with one of our customers. Here was the update v9.6 installed on the weekend.

This worked without problems. Until noticed that the PPPOE interfaces no longer come online. New installation of the interfaces has also brought nothing. If the interface is set to Ethernet it will work, but of course it will not be able to connect.

If it were only a DSL connection, one could say it is the provider. Unfortunately, these are two independent connections which are also fed in at different locations.

Attached the PPPOE Log:

Would be glad if someone had an idea what this may be.

Thanks and regards

    Hello,


    thanks for posting this, we where still fiddling around to exclude configuration errors on our side!

    We stumbled across exactly the same problem after having re-patched an Ethernet interface of one of our five (three providers, with two double redundancy) PPPoE connections.

    The HA system tried a failover to Node2, which of course could no longer establish a connection due to the "File exists" error described above. This led to multiple meaningless and ineffective node failovers with a complete failure of ALL lines. Fortunately we did this work during the holidays.

    After intensive testing, we found that either activating HA with failover or activating the fifth PPPoE connection would cause all lines to fail with unsuccessful reconnects.

    Since it is a showstopper, ,  I ask you to give top priority to this!

    Best regards,

    HP

    Hello,

    and thank you for your answer. Is there a work-around for this? The customer is currently working with only one line which is very unpleasant in case of a breakdown.

    In fact, we only have the phenomenon on firewalls with HA. Other systems without HA do not have the problem.

    Thanks in advance.

    many Greetings

    best regards,

    No, sorry, no idea.

    I think without a bugfix from Sophos PPPoE with HA is a no-go in 9.6.

    Yes, unfortunately I can not wait that long. That's why I removed NODE2, reset it, and redesigned it with v9.5.
