does queueing still function with pfstat? As far as I'm aware it still
uses the old altq method which has long been abandoned.
you're correct, pfstat hasn't been updated to follow changes in PF for
a long time. the only change in pfstat since 2007 has been adding the
-f flag to copy/clean the database.
Thanks Stuart for the confirmation.
Hmm looks like this might be a feature request to Daniel then..... or
someone who's working on pfstat :-)
Nobody is visibly working on pfstat.
If anyone did want to work on queue monitoring I'd encourage them to
look at adding to snmpd instead (it will need a custom MIB). There are
plenty of things that can monitor SNMP stats, and as it's in base,
there are no real worries about ABI getting out of sync.
Interesting!
I think I agree with SNMP. It would be great if pf could be monitored
through net-snmp or the built in snmp. To be able to see what PF is
doing in something like Observium, Zabbix, Cacti or any other SNMP based
monitoring software would be a really nice asset.
