Title: fresh installation
Post by: wbravin on June 29, 2020, 07:39:57 PM
hello all

I am a neophyte at opensense.

after a weekend spent to build and configure a dell r710 and after spending time to properly have the usb port read my usb, i finally got to install opnsene 20.1 on a 1tb hd.

Now I have the server boot and go straight to the opnsense script

I know nothing about opnsense and i am learning from the installation guide and the videos on youtube.

I did not assign lan or wan during the scipt.  The server is connected to one port of the NIC.

I do not want to use this server as a router for the moment therefore i did not assign a lan address.. if i add a lan ip from the console menu I assign an on the console level i assign a  it as dhcp

issues

1) why during the boot phase of opnsense do i always get ask for credentials before displaying the console menu?

2) how do i stop this?

Thank you for your patience and response
