No worries. The upgrade path is live now.  :)

This was fixed in today's 25.7.11_9 hotfix.

> Yes, exactly.

It's important to know that all configuration exists within config.xml and a component moving to plugins simply keeps reading the same information.

> As I understand it, you don't need to change anything manually. The "Track Interface" option is still there (marked as "legacy" thoguh), and works as expected.

There may be use cases where you want "Identity association" with ISC-DHCP.  This is analogous to using the " Allow manual adjustment of DHCPv6 and Router Advertisements" option in "Track interface". At some point both IPv6 modes may start to drift feature-wise, but at the moment that's not the case either.

Specifically the problem with "Track interface" was just that it was closely tied to ISC-DHCPv6/Radvd auto-configuration which is different now that we have Dnsmasq DHCPv6+RA and Kea DHCPv6+Radvd as viable options we don't want to also manage automatically anymore. Even Dnsmasq DHCPv6+Radvd can be a viable option.

A hotfix release was issued as 25.7.11_9:

o interfaces: host discovery: make sure the full dump includes NDP output on fallback
o firewall: improve GeoIP alias expiry condition
o firewall: escape selector in rule_protocol
o dnsmasq: fix log conditions
o firmware: add upgrade hint and fingerprint for 26.1 plus isc-dhcp plugin migration
o isc-dhcp: check if device we try to configure exists in the system
o openvpn: account for CARP status in start and restart cases as well
o ports: hostwatch 1.0.6 with community tested improvements

Discussed this a bit with Cedrik.  I think in general this is a good idea although it's a bit complicated to compute the values in each case and a few special subnet sizes need more than one entry from the looks of it.

Got it, we'll discuss this internally.

Just for reference switched to -d1 mode here https://github.com/opnsense/core/commit/e1cc2661b647f2959

Thanks for the feedback! Which exact steps for "reverse lookup" did you make? So we are clear about the procedure.

Which, being on 25.7, would already be installed anyway.  ;)

Can you post an "ifconfig -l" from that box?

You can run the assignment from the console again, but it's a bit difficult to locate the NIC port if it's out of order.

Best you can do is plug a switch and look for the link status in ifconfig (or dmesg entry).


Thanks,

Please start with the last known good version and the first bad version and show us a system log snipped of what you're taking about.


Thanks,

Why are we always asking about backports when that's our standard procedure? 26.1 has all the latest backports as the are available on stable/14 and it's going to be in the business edition on 26.4.
