I'm having an issue (maybe I missed a setting somewhere).

I am using Client IDs to assign hostnames and DNS servers to some of the machines on my network (because the latest version of macOS uses rotating MAC addresses). Once I figured out to preface the Client ID with \000 in OPNsense that worked, but I am having a problem.

These static mappings DO NOT show up in the UI. I know they exist. I can see them in /conf/config.xml on the firewall and the machines in question are receiving the right DNS server, but they are absent from the "DHCP Static Mappings for this interface." for LAN.

Has anybody else seen this? Did I miss a checkbox somewhere? Should I open a bug?

After some LinuxVMs crashes (running k3s and microk8s without any pods or configuration) I decided that Proxmox was the issue and switched to VMware.

My plan is to try that, then Hyper-V, then give up and run bare metal. Something should eventually be stable  ;)

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but how did you make out?

I'm having the same issue with nearly the same model (n6005 is the only difference). Did you try a more dependable power supply?

Inadyn, https://github.com/troglobit/inadyn, seems like a good third option for a Dynamic DNS client (in addition to ddclient and dyndns), so I thought I'd try my hand at building a OPNsense package for it.

As such I have thrown together a plug-in for it, but I have a few questions before I open a pull request:

  • If the client is a dependency in the Makefile, will it be built in the OPNsense package repo?
  • How do I make this a service that can be managed from the gui (start, stop, restart from any of the settings pages)? I can see Unbound is set up this way, but I can't see where that is.

here is the repo with the code:
