24.1 Legacy Series / Re: Wireguard missing since update
« on: March 15, 2024, 03:40:17 am »It's a cosmetic leftover. And you can reset the plugin conflict from the System: Firmware: Status page...

23.1 Legacy Series / Re: Console Color changes yellow to white slowly and back again.
« on: September 28, 2023, 08:49:51 pm »
it has stuck to yellow since then. And I think this does answer it, it's not supposed to change colors. I just hope its the monitor going bad and not the OPNsense box.
BUT, you didn't read my "long version" as it was stuck in a boot loop, it did not load. :-( Maybe you are skilled enough to reflash the ISO via ethernet, But I am not.
also, side note, I get impatient with the GUI, it says "rebooting" and hangs there sometimes for a while, if I turn on the terminal monitor, I can see it running through its checks. I don't type in it much, but it's nice to glance at or in emergencies like this one when you are relaoading!

23.1 Legacy Series / Console Color changes yellow to white slowly and back again.
« on: September 27, 2023, 10:00:38 pm »
Short version:
My Console color is changing from white to yellow, and seems to be changing slowly. Is this correct?
Long version:
I don't use the console much, but I tried to rollback to a previous saved config and ... it went poorly. I got an boot error, i believe with the kernel and was not good! Text looped constantly on the screen. Sometimes it would load something with a "root" login and I could not log into console with password! I don't know if that was something changed in an update, or I did it previously, or the failed rollback did it, but root login was turned off in settings. I don't think it was me, so the other two! I am not an expert, but what I did was reinstall OPNsense. (Which by the way, downloading it, with no internet, involved me digging out some old gear out of a closet. That's another long story, and a lot of fun.) AND i was worried that the device was going bad as the terminal text kept changing color. (Seems to be stuck on yellow now.) (It is an old monitor, cant discount that possibility either.) once I got to the interface, I was able to reinstall the config. All the while it kept changing slowly from white to yellow.

22.7 Legacy Series / VIP understanding and Firewall Rules
« on: January 22, 2023, 01:31:15 am »
I currently have two PiHoles on two servers. I set up KeepaliveD so there is a master and slave, as a failover system. In the config of KeepaliveD the VIP is stated. I also added the VIP to the OPNsense interface.
When I do firewall rules, do I just add the two server IP's or do I need to include the VIP?
I guess I am trying to understand how a VIP works, the documentation is not helping, and I cant find anything else on it. I am not doing CARP or anything, and that is the type of googling I keep finding, like a VIP for HA, with CARP involving the WAN and everything. I just need an internal LAN VIP.
I have done something wrong, I can ping the VIP and shut down a server, and I see failover and it go back to pinging, but when I shut down the 2nd server, it just keeps pinging! And its similar for the PIHoles. If I shut down both piholes, the DNS still works on the PC.

22.7 Legacy Series / VGA / KVM Login not working
« on: September 16, 2022, 04:49:45 am »
I am able to use the GUI, but having trouble with tthe KVM switch that goes to VGA. I tried "root" and when I type my user it says "this account is currently not available"
Leave no stone unturned, I may have done something stupid.
In System > administration, I have console checked. It had been working with "VGA" and I also tried "serial"
What does work is unchecking "Password protect the console menu" However, I had to enter a user name and password.
What am I missing?

General Discussion / Allow interface to share
« on: April 06, 2021, 03:37:30 am »
My question is currently about interfaces, but it also applies to vlans. How can you allow across subnets?
I have 2 interfaces. Ip range on one is igb1 - 192.168.1.0/24
IP range of the second is igb2- 192.168.69.0/24
On the igb2 69 2nd interface, I plug in a cisco switch. (That's it nothing on the switch.) 192.168.1.11. So other ip range on this interface. Firewall rules all set to allow all on both interfaces . I can't access it from a computer on the 1st 192.168.1.0 range.
Everything I read says I should be able to access it. I have tried to read about "gateways" and "static routes" and it seems to say I don't need those. Any thoughts? Or do I?
