XR500 Static Route dropping packets
I'm running into an issue with my XR500 router. I'm running the lastest stable firmware (check from router indicates latest version). I have a virtualization server that I'm hosting a Linux bridg...
It could be QoS related - how did you disable it? It should be disabled from the Anti-Bufferbloat 3 line menu to make sure. How do you have your router setup as well?
I went into the administrative screens, under QoS set anti-buffer bloat to Never, turned off traffic prioritization.
There are no geo-filter devices set.
My network is a little more complex than most.
I have disabled DHCP on the router. I have a linux server hosted on 192.168.1.2 configured to serve DHCP & DNS functions.
Network is configured as 192.168.1.0/24.
I have a linux virtualization server hosted at 192.168.1.26 (static IP). Underneath that server I have a linux bridge configured to host a virtualized set of networks (currently 1) in the 172.16.0.0/12 range. The hosted virtual network is 172.16.1.0/24. I have configured routing and masquerading and am able to successfully reach hosts on that network as well as have them reach the internet and local lan.
Try completely disabling QoS. On the anti-bufferbloat panel, there's a side menu which contains a full Disable for QoS. This will allow us to narrow down the problem.
I'm currently traveling for work and don't have access at the moment to try any changes.
I will attempt that hopefully this weekend.
What impact would turning those features off have on my network?
- Disabling QoS could cause you to experience local congestion depending on your bandwidth speeds. If it does work then that indicates we need to look at how QoS interacts with static routes and likely implement a fix.
