OPNsense Forum

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to get OSPF running between two OPNsense instances -  both running as VM on ESXi.

topology:
vlan lan (10.10.10.0/24) -- fw.lan.5it.de -- transfer vlan (10.10.250.0/24) -- fw.lab.5it.de -- vlan lab (10.10.100.0/25)

running config fw.lan:


Building configuration...

Current configuration:
!
frr version 6.0.2
frr defaults traditional
hostname fw.lan.5it.de
log file /var/log/frr.log
!
interface vmx1_vlan2010
ip ospf area 0.0.0.10
!
interface vmx2
ip ospf area 0.0.0.0
!
router ospf
ospf router-id 1.1.1.1
passive-interface vmx1_vlan2010
!
line vty
!
end

--------------------

running config fw.lab:

Building configuration...

Current configuration:
!
frr version 6.0.2
frr defaults traditional
hostname fw.lab.5it.de
log file /var/log/frr.log
!
interface vmx0
ip ospf area 0.0.0.0
!
interface vmx2_vlan100
ip ospf area 0.0.0.100
!
router ospf
ospf router-id 2.2.2.2
passive-interface vmx2_vlan100
!
line vty
!
end


As you can see, network settings are missing.

As soon, as i configure the area under the interfaces, I get this error

2020/06/10 21:54:35 OSPF: ERROR: Command returned Warning Config Failed on config line 21:  network 10.10.250.0/24 area 0.0.0.0

2020/06/10 21:54:35 OSPF: EXT (ospf_ext_link_ism_change): Set Adj. SID to interface vmx2

and the network settings aren't written to the config.
Can anybody confirm a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Configuration is done by gui only...

Software versions:

• OPNSense 20.1.7
• os-frr 1.14

Did you hit the small Apply Button?

You're talking about the small "Reload  Service" button? Yes.

When configuring an area at the network tab, I get the error that writing the config line isn't possible...
It is only possible to configure an area at the network tab or the interfaces tab. If I configure both, the error occurs in the logfile.
