Hardware and Performance / SMART status failed on new NVME drive +

« on: January 31, 2024, 12:41:08 am »

Hi I recently moved from pfSense to OPNsense. My new "Silicone Power" NVME drive - https://amzn.eu/d/5KeN56Y) has a failed SMART status.

Having done a bit of digging, the drive is reporting a temperature of 115ºC which seems crazy - however the drive's x8 temperature sensors are reporting temperature in the 50s ºC range. I don't understand where the 115ºC is coming from, should I be concerned?

Thanks, yep but I couldn’t find anything in regards to Dynamic IPv6 Host aliases.

General Discussion / Dynamic IPv6 Host Alias Question

« on: December 30, 2023, 05:14:10 pm »

Hi, I'm based in the UK and my ISP is Community fibre, as far as I'm aware my IPv6 IP address is dynamic.

WAN IPv6 configuration is as follows:

Code: [Select]

IPv6 Configuration Type: DCHPv6

DHCPv6 client configuration

Prefix delegation size: 48
Send IPv6 prefix hint: ☑︎
LAN IPv6 configuration is as follows:

Track IPv6 Interface

Code: [Select]

IPv6 Interface: WAN
IPv6 Prefix ID: 0
☑︎ Allow manual adjustment of DHCPv6 and Router Advertisements

I'm trying to create a Dynamic IPv6 Host Alias to use in a firewall rule, as I understand that if the prefix supplied by my ISP changes all my LAN IPs will change too.

I've checked out the documentation here https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/aliases.html#dynamic-ipv6-host

I'm a complete novice when it comes to IPv6, so apologies in advance. I understand that I need to "enter only the suffix of the address ... the lower 64 bits of the address" however my IP doesn't seem to match the format of the examples given:

E.g. Example IP: 2a02:1234:5678:0000:aaaa:bbbb:cccc:0001
The Dynamic IPv6 Host Alias for this would be: ::aaaa:bbbb:cccc:0001

My IP looks like: 2a02:XXXX:XXXX:0:230:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX
I've tried the following for the Dynamic IPv6 Host Alias, but my firewall rule doesn't work unless I enter the full IP :/
::230:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX
::0:230:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX

Any help appreciated!
