High availability / Renaming interfaces on HA failover machine after reboot
« on: October 12, 2021, 04:54:50 am »
Hey all,
I am trying to get HA working with two boxes that are different. One is a high performance router that is the primary, and the second is a VM on an internal server. I have been able to get HA working with proper rule replication if i run the command
Any ideas or solutions for this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

I am trying to get HA working with two boxes that are different. One is a high performance router that is the primary, and the second is a VM on an internal server. I have been able to get HA working with proper rule replication if i run the command
Code: [Select]
ifconfig vtnet1 name igb0
ifconfig vtnet0 name igb1
As this switches the VM's interfaces to have the same interface names as the primary box. I tried following the guide here https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/freebsd-network-interface-names.2540/, but the names are not picked up on startup. I then tried moving that file to /usr/local/etc, as that is where opnSense seems to want to pick up its rc files, but that also did not work.Any ideas or solutions for this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
