General Discussion / Constant disk writes

« on: September 25, 2022, 06:36:50 pm »

Is it normal for OPNsense to have constant disk write? zpool iostat 1 shows that every 5 seconds there are write operations.

Thanks.

That can be seen in Firewall-Log Files-Live View?

Hm, it doesn't work. I have set 192.168.1.0/24 as source and destination (two separated rules) but can't access 192.168.1.0/24.

I have a running OPNsense in a ESXi VM (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=30399.0).

My modem is running a DHCP server with the 192.168.1.x subnet from which ESXi and IPMI of my Supermicro server get their IPs.

How should I set up the network management to access the 192.168.1.x subnet from the 192.168.10.x subnet that is OPNsense on.

Thanks.

Just a feedback, my setup works as the two authors above said it would work.

To sum up: OPNsense is in a VM, LAN is running a DHCP server, WAN is over PPPOE. The wireless router is in access point mode (TP-LINK AX50), has a static IP with same subnet as LAN and DHCP turned off, Gateway on the wireless router set with the IP of LAN. The wireless router and OPNsense (LAN) are connected to the switch.

So should the access point get an IP from the DHCP server instead having a static IP?

I have OPNsense running in an ESXi VM. A 4 port NIC is passed through to the VM. LAN is on em0, WAN on em1. I have a managed switch and a TP LINK wireless router. I put the wireless router into access point mode with a static IP on the same subnet as OPNsense, DHCP is turned off on the wireless router. What I want to achieve is to get a working access point. The wireless router would be connected to the switch, OPNsense would be connected to the switch over LAN. How must I configure OPNsense to get internet traffic on the access point?

Thanks.
