22.7 Production Series / Re: lack of support for opnsense hardware

« on: August 15, 2022, 05:06:46 pm »

You bought hardware and not support.

That is like buying Office 2019 and expecting phone support. It is not gonna happen. You get "community" aka forum support.

If you buy support here https://shop.opnsense.com/product/opnsense-business-support-subscription/ you get 2h phone support included.

But I agree that based on the problems here on the forum, 22.7 should not have been public yet. I for one wait until 22.7.X is released.

I completely disagree about Office 2019 example... I have a site license for Windows anything and it costs $100USD an hour to dial them up.... So NO! not the same.

When purchasing any hardware, go look this up, you own Zilch, Nada, Zero!!! This is due to DMCA. However, you are to have some support, i.e. in email form in regards to hardware issues such as dead SSD in weeks.

General Discussion / Re: Suggestions to configure OPNsense with Juniper switch

How does the EX 2200 port set up to connect to the OPNsense?

Also, looks like that OPNsense is unable to send the returned packets. you may need to add routes on the OPNsense.

22.7 Production Series / Page load is super slow...

« on: August 06, 2022, 02:03:27 am »

the last couple of upgrades have drastically reduced the admin web page loads. As an example, the services, dnsmasq, settings that I am not using takes 2 min to load. CPU is @ 1%.

22.1 Legacy Series / Re: Odd behavior

It looks like the issue was with the NAT Redirect which core dumped the OPNSense the other day... So I guess I'll wait till the next release hope it all gets resolved.

22.1 Legacy Series / Odd behavior

« on: July 25, 2022, 02:40:19 am »

Running opnsense for a while without an issue. Today, I just bounce the webgui and now nothing can browse the internet. I can ping everything and everywhere. I power down and power back on with no luck.

untagged vlans are unsupported if you are using tagged valns on the same interface.

"From: DNS" is wrong for the port range. DNS clients use random source ports. Only the destination port is well defined and always 53.

Patrick,
  I tried to follow:

https://homenetworkguy.com/how-to/redirect-all-dns-requests-to-local-dns-resolver/

and with you recommendation above, I am still unable to do this for both IPv4 and IPv6. Not sure what's missing.

Here's a free TCP/IP guide that talks about the basics of needing ports to communicate.

Hardware and Performance / Re: Jumbo frames on axgbe / DEC7x0

Here's the doc for the I210 NIC on A20 spec which states 9.5K size.

https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/612/i210_ethernet_controller_datasheet-257785.pdf

On pg 12 Table 1-3

Size of jumbo frames supported 9.5 KB

I'll post it later as I am out.

So that may be... I have an A20 netboard and looks like you have a A10 which makes sense that your max MTU is 4K as opposed to 8K which is still considered Jumbo as anything over 15oo is considered jumbo.

Hardware and Performance / Re: 10GB LAN Performance

you seem not understand the BSD ecosystem. It's not your fault and that's OK.

Thank you for your thoughtful contribution to the topic.

Just to clarifying this, Netgate's TNSR is linux based and NOT free. Netgate is doing this for $$$$. TrueNAs is doing it for totally different reason and that's got nothing to do with FreeBSD slow networking speeds.

Here's an example of driver you can install on your FreeBSD, bnxt , to get 100G
Broadcom BCM57454 NetXtreme-E 10Gb/25Gb/40Gb/50Gb/100Gb Ethernet

And!!!

here's how netflix is using FreeBSD:

I can't wait for this years EuroBSDcon for this topic:
The “other” FreeBSD optimizations used by Netflix to serve video at 800Gb/s from a single server

how's this interface with Jumbo configured. I mean is it a trunk or routed interface.

if it's a routed interface, are you testing the ping point to point?

Largest Jumbo frame is 9216. Now, I am not sure if you configured the same on both ends. I have no issues doing jumbo.
