General Discussion / Re: Proper way to delay boot up

« on: August 08, 2024, 10:39:21 pm »

Isn't it like most .d folders, that an additional file like 70-custom-delay with the same content would overwrite 20-misc? Like most of those files work in the Linux world? That way, the 20-misc can be overwritten from any update, but your setting would remain. I don't think, that the whole folder is overwritten/deleted at an update?

Edit: first found value prevails. You need your custom file to be lower than 20.

This worked great!  thanks so much!   I still think ti shoudl be a var in the GUI but at least this works!

General Discussion / Proper way to delay boot up

« on: August 06, 2024, 04:49:20 pm »

Hi,

I have HA turned on.  if for some reason my whole network is down, on boot up, I want my secondary firewall to wait about 5 minutes (For my ISP to give me my IPs) and then boot.   After that I want the primary to come up about 1 minute later.   This is due to the complexities of having only a single wan IP and using CARP.  Anyway, the way I've done this is I have modified

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/etc/rc.loader.d/20-misc so it contains

Code: [Select]

autoboot_delay="400" on the primary and

Code: [Select]

autoboot_delay="300" on the secondary.  Sadly every update causes this file to be overritten.  I Assume there must be a setting somewhere I can change to have this perist but I cannot figure it out.   What am I missing?

Thanks!

21.7 Legacy Series / Re: Interfaces randomly go down/unroutable

Did you try rolling back the suricata version to the one before 21.7.6? It works wonderfully for me after a rollback.

Nope.  I tried to do it, but couldn't figure it out, and didn't care that much... Just wanted to report that it still seemed to be an issue.

It has not been fixed in 21.7.7 for me.

Also I have only enabled suricata on my WAN interface which has no virtual interfaces, so I don't understand why I am impacted.  For now disabling suricata has solved the issue.
