General Discussion / Shaper Quantum value
October 11, 2025, 02:15:47 PM
Hi,

After reading the following topic about how-to setup a Shaper to get rid of bufferbloat: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/shaper_bufferbloat.html#quantum

Regarding the correct value for "Quantum" its stated:

QuoteThe proper value of Quantum should be no more or less than is the WAN MTU.

However, while this might sound clear. This is still too ambiguous for me.

I have fiber connection from my ISP using PPPoE, which is 1500 bytes.
However PPPoE has a connection overhead of 8 Bytes, so the WAN interface with VLAN 6 tag has a MTU of 1508.
So I have set 1508 MTU on my WAN interface (Identifier: opt1, device: ppoe0).

But that is not all, I also have a 'WAN RAW' interface configured as well (Identifier: opt6, device: ax0). Which has the overhead of the VLAN of 4 bytes, meaning that MTU setting is 1512.

Meaning "WAN MTU" term is too ambiguous for me. So what value should I use now for quantum; 1500, 1508 or 1512?

I guess 1512 in my case. Right or not? This could be written more clearly.

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,
Melroy van den Berg

24.7, 24.10 Legacy Series / Kernel crash
January 10, 2025, 01:51:16 PM
Dmesg kernel crash using OPNsense 24.10.1 Business (fully up to date). I use both IPv4 and IPv6 (dual stack), nothing special about my setup and no additional package installed. And using the official Deciso hardware:

I only see 24.7 Production Series forum (and 24.1).

Where is the 24.10 Production Series forum?

Dutch - Nederlands / Geluidsdruk
June 14, 2024, 02:40:41 PM
Ik ben mogelijk van plan om DEC3842 aan te schaffen voor in m'n 19" server rack.

Echer, ondanks dat de server rack in de garage staat, wil ik niet al te veel lawaai hebben.
Kan iemand mij vertellen hoeveel decibel deze server maakt in idle? En hoeveel db tijdens normaal/gemiddelde load? Zit er een goeie fan control op?

Helaas kon ik helemaal niks vinden over geluidsdruk op de product omschrijving op de site: https://shop.opnsense.com/product/dec3842-opnsense-rack-security-appliance/ maar ook niet in de brochure: https://shop.opnsense.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/DEC3842_52_62.pdf

Alvast bedankt!

Groet,
Melroy van den Berg
