Hardware and Performance / opnsense - Randomly unable to access router, cpu process high

« on: October 15, 2018, 05:08:14 pm »

Good afternoon!

Here's my issue;

I came in this morning to work, and was asked to add a new device to the dhcp MAC reservation list. However, between the main login screen and actually entering the information for the new device, I spent about 20 minutes. All menus and sub-menus take over 3-4 minutes to load.

-update, turns out opnsense had errors and the dhcp stopped working. This is the second time in less than a month. The CPU usage was at 100% but we have no idea which process was using up so much? We need to find a solution, we just can't afford to reboot the router every time.

Our setup:
We have a small desktop which has 3 NICs, 2 LANs and 1 WAN, 4 GB of RAM and an i5 2.6GHz Dual-core. We have one network set for the office and the other for guests and employees.

If you need more info please ask, and tanks in advance!

Cheers,

AH OK, I get what you're saying sorry.

My issue right now is that I'm not sure how to reach the console screen, I'm going to guess it needs root/sudo access to get to that screen?
Also, not sure the sysadmin had set up ssh or wtv to connect to it outside of using the actual workstation or through the web interface.

I'm actually new to the company, first week in. So I'm freaking out ahhah.. ha....

Good morning.

Not sure if I posted in the right thread, but couldn't find this when searching.

I'll make this quick and simple.

I have a workstation with 3 nic cards, 2 LANS and 1 WAN. Using it as a DHCP server.
I was playing around with VLANS, and accidentally changed the the LANS settings with vlans. I am not sure now what the ip address of those two interfaces are, and so I can't reach the gui.
I am now getting APIPA on from both cards and am unable to access the gui to change my settings.
What can I do to access the opnsense router settings?

Cheers.

18.7 Legacy Series / Need help setting up vlans with OpnSense and Cisco Switch.

« on: August 22, 2018, 07:05:20 pm »

Hey all,

So here's what I'm trying to do.

I have a Cisco switch configured to have Vlans separating two networks.

Network 1 is for the office, servers, routers, and network 2 is for the guest Wifi running through an access point.
I have OpnSense installed on an old-ish workstation as a Router giving out ips through DHCP.

My question is this;

How do I go about creating 2 vlans on the Cisco switch and have the DHCP server proliferate it's addresses through both networks?
