Hey sorry I just saw this!! I have already installed 25.1 again but the issue is when I update to 25.1.6 within the GUI after the fresh install and restoring my config, it does the boot issue. Is what you suggested still something I can do to prevent the update from breaking when I install it? I really would like to have ALL of my plugins back but can't due to it telling me I need to update the system.

So I have been using version 24.7 previously. Last night I updated to 25.1.6 and after it rebooted, I noticed my network never came back. I plugged the OPNsense box into the monitor and found it was hanging during the boot/initialization after the opnsense boot screen. I have tried several times to boot into 25.1 6, and even tried to go back to 24.7 and found I cannot now. The only thing that works that is recent is 25.1. Is there a work around? Is there a bug that is going to get worked on for this? After installing 25.1 I have several plugins that I cannot install that I had installed before due to it telling me I need to update to 25.1.6 to install them. I really love OPNsense but if there is a way to get this resolved or a way to fix this please let me know.

Update: so i was able to get version 25.1 working with limitations. I really would like to be able to have my plugins back but if i try to update it gets stuck in boot. The update to 25.1.6_4 is required.

I am actually having the same issue right now when trying to use version 25.1.6 it breaks when I reboot after the update. It was working perfectly fine before.

So 3 times now I have tried to fix this. I first updated from 24.7, to 25.1 and after rebooting it never came back. It got stuck on the boot menu at the "atkbd0: GIANT LOCKED) line. Every time. So I did a full reinstall, wiped both of the drives in opnsense, installed them and reinstalled the 25.1 .img. once in the GUI I restored my backup config. Worked fine but I also noticed I was missing several plugins. So I went to check and it showed several in red. In order to install them I needed to update opnsense to 25.1.6, and yet again after a reboot the same exact thing happened. I am now reinstalling again and going to leave it until I can find out more. My interface setup is as follows. I have a 4 port Ethernet nic Bge 0 is wan, bge1 Is for my HomeLab, bge2 is GhostNetwork which goes out to the camper on our property, and bge 3 is for a TPlink AP. I use isc DHCP4 for my bridge which is was the original LAN interface. So now it is LAN_Bridge, I have had zero issues until this most recent update. I'm not sure if others are having problems but I would like to know what I should do. Do I need to change over to kea DHCP? If so how do I do so without having to setup everything if If using my backup to restore changes it back to isc, also maybe this is a bug of some sort. IDK but figured I should share what's going on. hp t740 thin client tpc-1036-tc is the device I'm using.

So if we want to keep isc we can?

General Discussion / Prevent Public DNS?
April 14, 2025, 09:15:51 AM
I ran a shodan.io search on my public ip and found that it shows ports 53 for TCP and UDP are open or showing. I am using DOT, and have 2 firewall rules blocking in and out traffic for unencrypted DNS on 53. I wanted to be able to not have that showing on shodan.io. When i tried to choose specific interfaces like LAN on my GUI for unbound, unbound would not start back up once it restarted. It just crashed and I lost DNS for my network. the same would happen if i chose any other options. the only way to get DNS working again is if i unchecked all the options so it said All (Recommended). How can i make it to where I don't show up on shodan.io or other sites like this. I didn't notice it until recently and idk how long it has been like that because i checked shodan.io around a month and a half ago. Thank you guys in advance. P.S., I sincerely love OPNsense. My bestfriend told me about it because i was complaining about my last router from century link (have changed isp and from DSL to fiber since then) and also started a decent home lab with a Proxmox cluster of 3, a standalone DellR630 Proxmox node, TrueNAS Scale server and a bunch of vms and lxc like pihole. Pihole is using unbound as its dns and has been working great. This issue with shodan.io showing my DNS ports is the only thing i have come across i didn't like. You guys are awesome! also so is mimugmail is doing some awesome and amazing things! Huge Props!!
