General Discussion / ESXI WAN DHCP client is not working

« on: March 04, 2024, 03:59:14 pm »

I use OPNsense for many years running directly on hardware.
Now I've tried to run the OPNsense under ESXI on the same hardware, but facing to problems that WAN interface is not working (OPNsense do not get IP address via DHCP on WAN interface).
When I have running OPNsense on the same HW directly (without ESXI), then the WAN interface works fine.

Used configuration:
- ESXI 7.0 Update 3 and tried to use fresh installation of OPNsense 23.7 and 24.1
- Two Ethernet interfaces VMNIC0 (i219-LM) and VMNIC1 (i210)
- defined two vSwitches - first for LAN attached to VMNIC0, second for WAN attached to VMNIC1
- the vSwitch for WAN has enabled promiscuous mode
- OPNsense LAN assigned to VMX0 (LAN vSwitch), WAN assigned to VMX1 (WAN vSwitch)

The LAN interface works well (able to connect to ESXI, OPNsense web interface, console, etc)
The WAN interface didn't get IP address (see attached screenshots).
Note: When running the fresh installation of OPNsense on the same HW all works fine.

I've tried to search for similar issue, but found only hints regarding promiscuous mode, but this didn't help.

Thank you in advance for any hint.

Do you have idea what could be broken? How to mitigate such issue?

Hello,

there were added Mosquitto (MQTT broker) as package to 16.7.(13)(14) and later to 17.1
see: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=4218.0
Now I've migrated to 19.7, but can't install the package.

Thank you for any hint.

19.1 Legacy Series / Problem with WLE200NX after upgrade to 19.1

« on: February 06, 2019, 09:00:56 pm »

Hi,

I've upgraded to 19.1 from 18.7. After the upgrade everything seems fairly normal except the WiFi was down. I've tried to set it up, but without success. So I've deleted the interface and wireless device, then restarted the router. After this I'm not able to add the wireless device (dmesg output attached). Is the WLE200NX supported by the new kernel used for 19.1? Is there necessary to pass some parameter to the new kernel?
Previous versions of OPNsense (18.7, 18.1, ...) works on the HW fine (APU1D + WLE200NX + mSATA SSD).

Thank you for your support.

Cheers Martin

18.7 Legacy Series / py27-paho-mqtt

« on: October 03, 2018, 09:41:36 am »

Hi,

would be great to add package py27-paho-mqtt into opnsense.
To be able install it at least from command line using pkg install.

Thank you in advance for your support.

17.1 Legacy Series / Mosquitto (MQTT broker) is missing in list of available packages in 17.1

« on: February 03, 2017, 02:47:00 am »

Hello,

there were added Mosquitto (MQTT broker) as package to 16.7.(13)(14) see: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=4218.0
Now I migrated to 17.1, but can't find mosquitto package listed under GUI System | Firmware | Packages.
Assume it should be listed there.
Manual installation using shell works well (# pkg install mosquitto).

BR, Martin

General Discussion / [SOLVED] Mosquitto on OPNsense

« on: January 06, 2017, 09:14:13 pm »

Hello together,

I'm new to OPNsense (just installed the OPNsense-16.7) and to freebsd also.
Everything seems to work fine, but I need to run mosquitto (MQTT broker) on OPNsense to allow communicate IoT devices on my local network.
I've tried to install the mosquitto package, but got message that no package is available.

Code: [Select]

# pkg install mosquitto
Updating OPNsense repository catalogue...
OPNsense repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.
pkg: No packages available to install matching 'mosquitto' have been found in the repositories

I can find mosquitto on https://github.com/opnsense/ports/tree/master/net/mosquitto, so it seems it should be present in repository.

Please advise how to install mosquitto on OPNsense.

Thanks in advance for your help

Martin
