General Discussion / Force local device (ip) through existing site-2-site Wireguard connection

« on: August 01, 2023, 08:58:00 pm »

I got a working site-2-site wireguard connection, using the tutorial: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/wireguard-s2s.html

The two sites are in different countries and I would like to force the traffic of my TV, on site #1, to access the internet through site #2 so I can use some local news apps.

Is there a simple way to do this?
I'm using the latest version: OPNsense 23.1.11_1-amd64

So you are suggesting that device can't access any other device on the LAN because of some other reason, when I'm adding the firewall rule?
Or is it somethings wrong with how I set up the rule?
Before I add the rule the device can ping google.com and other devices on the LAN.
After the rule is applied it can't ping either google.com or any other devices on the LAN.

But if I do that then the device is also blocked from accessing the LAN, not only the internet, which is undesirable.

23.1 Legacy Series / Block IPs from internet access

« on: April 20, 2023, 09:19:02 pm »

I'm trying to block some LAN ip addresses from accessing the internet.
I created an alias with one ip, for testing, and then created a blocking rule in Firewall: Rules: Floating for WAN but when testing the device can still access the internet.
If I'm changing the rule interface from WAN to LAN then it works (no access to LAN).
What am I missing?

23.1 Legacy Series / Re: Problem setting MTU on Intel X550-T2 10Gbit Nic

« on: April 09, 2023, 08:33:51 pm »

I tried now to set the MTU to 9000 for both ports on both NICs, using the GUI.
Same problem as before.

I then tried to set it using command line:

Code: [Select]

ifconfig ix0 mtu 9000 up & ifconfig ix1 mtu 9000 up & ifconfig ix2 mtu 9000 up & ifconfig ix3 mtu 9000 up &
Still same problem as before.

23.1 Legacy Series / Problem setting MTU on Intel X550-T2 10Gbit Nic

« on: April 09, 2023, 07:22:29 pm »

I have a NAS, and a computer, with ASUS XG-C100C 10 Gbit NICs.
In between I have a OpnSense router with two Intel X550-T2 10 Gbit NICs.

When transferring a big file from NAS to computer I get about 6.8 - 7.2 Gbit, according to the Windows 11.
The NAS has an SSD Raid that can deliver 10 Gbit of data without a problem.
I was hoping to increase this to closer to 10 Gbit by setting the MTU in OpnSense and jumbo frame in Windows 11.

If I set the MTU to 9000 on the Intel NIC in OpnSense GUI the connection to my computer drops out back and fourth. If I ping the router 4-5 pings get through and 4-5 pings then doesn't.
If I do a ipconfig, while MTU is set, it says that the MTU is 1500:

Code: [Select]

ix2: flags=8963<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        description: LAN10GB1 (opt2)
        options=4803828<VLAN_MTU,JUMBO_MTU,WOL_UCAST,WOL_MCAST,WOL_MAGIC,NOMAP>
        ether xxxx
        media: Ethernet autoselect (10Gbase-T <full-duplex,rxpause,txpause>)
        status: active
        nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

If I remove the MTU value in the GUI and set it using the command line

Code: [Select]

ifconfig ix2 mtu 9000 up it shows up as 9000 if checked with ifconfig but it gets reset back to 1500 after a while and I don't think it actually worked since I can't verify using

Code: [Select]

ping -f -l 9000 ... even after setting the computer NIC jumbo frame.

Any suggestions to get this to work?

General Discussion / Re: Device with static IP does not work properly (Unbound problem)

« on: March 06, 2023, 10:09:44 am »

I use only IP address to connect to the device.
Maybe it's not Unbound, but disabling it breaks the chain to the actual problem. But I have no clue what it would be.

An update:
I started to disable services and the problem went away when I disabled Unbound.
The only thing I have in Unbound is a mapping for a subdomain to an ip, but if I disable it the problem is still present so I don't thing it has to do with that.

My Unbound config, from backup:

I tried that. The MAC address remains the same.
I cleared out the arp table on my computer between connecting/disconnecting the router:

Code: [Select]

arp -d *

General Discussion / Device with static IP does not work properly (Unbound problem?)

« on: March 04, 2023, 11:47:28 pm »

I don't know what to make of this and I'm not even sure where to start looking.

I have a audio matrix (the t.racks DSP 408) with a static ip.
If I set a static ip on my computer, and connect directly to the DSP, the provided network software for the matrix works perfectly.
If I connect the computer and matrix together using a switch (Netgear GS108) it also works.
If I connect my router, running Opensense (23.1.1_2-amd64) to the same switch I can ping the DSP but not connect using it's software.

My first thought was that there might be another device with the same ip, but there isn't.
Any thoughts about this or where to start looking?

21.7 Legacy Series / Domain to ip route

« on: October 13, 2021, 06:01:47 pm »

I've got some different situations that rely on sending a sub-domain to a specific LAN ip.
I was using OpenWRT before and simply hardcoded it in /etc/hosts.
What is the correct/good way to do it in OPNsense?

For example would I like "test.example.com" to point to 192.168.0.100 and "test.example2.com" to point to 192.168.0.101
I don't want to use "example.com" or "example2.com" etc as my local domain.

I've been looking into Ubound DNS but I'm not sure what to use there or how to configure it.
I've also seen that you can add a domain for the DHCP4. Is that the way to go?
