24.7 Production Series / Monit - Service - Poll time

« on: November 19, 2024, 12:04:42 pm »

I'm trying to edit the poll time for a service configured in monit, according to my needs but if I enter an integer (for cycles) Monit will not save and the button Apply will never disappear and monit will be stuck, If I try to enter a cron syntax for every 30 minutes (*/30 * * * *) it seems that does not support the step characther (/).
This is what the help for poll time says: Set the service poll time. Either as a number of cycles "NUMBER CYCLES" or Cron-style "* 8-19 * * 1-5". So an integer for number of cycles should be supportes, since according to monit documentation a cycles is every 2 minutes, 15 should be my integer but Monit does not restart.

20.1 Legacy Series / Re: CPU spike every 60 seconds from update_tables.py

I check the script and just update the pf tables. Maybe that frequency is useful in scenario where you have HA enabled and want to be sure the 2 system are constantly aligned (just supposing, sorry if wrong).

Do you have Netflow v9 enabled? I saw this happening and from other comment being related to this. I shifted to v5 (more than enough for OPN) and is really almost disappearing or lot less CPU spike. Hope this help.

20.1 Legacy Series / Gateway remain offline even if is back online

« on: July 23, 2020, 12:13:46 am »

 I have 2 gateway, one DSL (GW1) and one 4G (GW2) The first one have priority 1 and monitor IP 8.8.8.8, the second have priority 100 and monitor IP 8.8.4.4.  I if test failover manually disabling the main gateway GW1, than it switch to GW2 autotomatically and and re-enabling GW1 switch the active gateway to GW1 and all works.
If I physically disconnect the cable from GW1, than automatically switch correctly to GW2, but when I reconnect the cable, even if I can ping the gateway GW1 IP from any computer, in OPN the Main gateway GW1 remain OFFLINE, until I manually click again to enable manually. Any help?

There is a way to reset the Traffic Shaper statistic displayed in the "status" page under Firewall other than restart the device?
Thanks.

I think I fixed this, disabling in bios SATA Gen3 and setting it as SATA gen 2

Hardware and Performance / Slow Firewall Performance

« on: June 17, 2020, 08:28:58 pm »

Just installed OPNSense, No rule in the firewall. But iperf3 with and without firewall is showing big difference. Even without firewall seems anyway not so great since I have a 1Gb interface. Other system running different flavor shows aroun 950Mbit.
Here is OPNSense with Firewall active:
[ ID] Interval           Transfer     Bitrate
[  5]   0.00-10.00  sec   513 MBytes   430 Mbits/sec                  sender
[  5]   0.00-10.00  sec   513 MBytes   430 Mbits/sec                  receiver
Ad without.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
[ ID] Interval           Transfer     Bitrate
[  5]   0.00-10.00  sec   919 MBytes   771 Mbits/sec                  sender
[  5]   0.00-10.00  sec   919 MBytes   770 Mbits/sec                  receiver

Any suggestion or is the system this slow? I was willing to applying to a 1Gb fiber but...is clearly not enough.

20.1 Legacy Series / Random not booting with Mount failed error 19

« on: June 17, 2020, 01:20:13 am »

New to OPNsense truing to migrate from another solution. What really surprise me is that on exact same kind of hw device where I have other linux distro with no problem, OPNsense sometime stop at boot with
Mounting from ufs/dev/gpt/rootfs failed with error 19
If I reboot most of the time it goes ok, but sometime, more frequently after a full system shoutdowm and power off it happen.
This do not seems reliable in a production enviroment, especially becouse the syetem have to run without a keybord.
I have tried adding boot delay as a plugin, as an option in tunables, add ahci hint as I saw in another post but no, still random issue. This is an ahci ssd. Any help?

General Discussion / Traffic Shaping: Question

« on: June 16, 2020, 07:46:51 pm »

Hello, I'm new to OPNSense. Coming from another solution where I was using QoS. In OPN seems a little different.
My question is about the concept of Pipe. Assuming I want to create priority and "reserved" bandwidth for a VoIP Class but also I want this bandwidth to be avaiable for the other traffic when there is no Voip traffic. Should I create a Pipe or Queues? Reading the documentation on the web site seems that if a pipe is created you need to create a pipe for the remaining traffic too, that let me deduct that this will reduce the amount of traffic even if the pipe is not used. Am I wrong? What 's the best option to achieve my scenario?
