Hardware and Performance / Chelsio T520-CR not lighting up
« on: January 19, 2022, 10:01:07 pm »
I must be missing something. I hope I'm overlooking something.
Opnsense 21.7.7 running on a Dell R420 with said T520-CR card installed & enabled in /boot/loader.conf.local file. Interfaces are assigned, cxl0=WAN / cxl1=LAN, with functioning FS SFP-10GLR-31 modules installed. The T520 interfaces light up when looped together, but when connecting the LAN to a Mikrotik CRS305-1G-4S+IN booting to SwitchOS it will not light up or pass traffic using FS-GB-GE-T SFP modules or the single RJ-45 port.
Any ideas? Am I missing something in the Mikrotik, the Dell BIOS, or in opnsense? The Mikrotik passes traffic on the RJ45 & the SFP ports when feeding it from the built-in copper on the Dell, but not with the TX520.
EDIT: Issue seems to be Mikrotik related. Another firewall with T422-CR cards is exhibiting the same symptoms with the Mikrotik, but not with an Arista switch.
EDIT: Tried using other 10GBASE-LR modules that currently work with the T420-CR card and an Arista switch in another Dell firewall, but still no link.
EDIT: Upgraded T520 boot rom and firmware. Same results. We know light is reaching the destination, but no live link unless we connect SFP to SFP on the card itself.

21.7 Legacy Series / Global config, OpenVPN and Local Network
« on: December 06, 2021, 04:56:18 pm »
A while back I changed my local subnet from the default one-dot to ten-dot, and adjusted my vpn settings accordingly. Recently decided to poke around the vpn log file and found this.
So I opened up /conf/config.xml and saw this.
I originally pushed my local network in the Advanced Configuration section on my vpn server, but have long since removed that. But even if I add new statements pushing ten-dot I still see the same old one-dot in my global config and in my vpn log. So, do I need to edit the config from the cli, or am I missing something in the GUI that will write my current settings to the config?
EDIT: Solved by editing config file in console.
Code: [Select]
foo/216.14.78.144:55280 SENT CONTROL [foo]: 'PUSH_REPLY,route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0So I opened up /conf/config.xml and saw this.
Code: [Select]
<tunnel_network>10.10.10.0/24</tunnel_network>
<remote_network>192.168.10.0/24</remote_network>
