Title: os-upnp, how to make it work?
Post by: hilfubsi on February 08, 2018, 04:04:39 am

I have installed the os-upnp plugin. In the install log, it says:

Code: [Select]

For this daemon to work, you must modify your pf rules to add an anchor
in both the NAT and rules section.  Both must be called 'miniupnpd'.
Example:

# NAT section
# UPnPd rdr anchor
rdr-anchor "miniupnpd"

# Rules section
# uPnPd rule anchor
anchor "miniupnpd"
I don't understand what that means, and I don't know what to do with this information. UPnP doesn't work with this plugin installed, and I don't see it in the Services list on the Dashboard.

What am I missing?

This is a note coming from the miniupnp package. Just ignore it as this stuff is done by OPNsense when the next firewall configuration reload happens.

I'm still missing something, shouldn't there be a upnp service running in the services list? I tried running a Transmission client that's supposed to open a port via UPnP, and it says the port is closed.

Yes, you need to enable it in the Services:

I didn't have it in the services. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, now it's there and enabled and working. Thanks!
