22.7 Legacy Series / WAN_DHCP6 Gateway Stuck Pending
« on: November 05, 2022, 05:22:46 am »
I changed internet service from VDSL to fibre recently and was reminded there is still a problem with OPNsense not being able to determine the IPV6 gateway address, resulting in the WAN_DHCP6 gateway not working unless the monitor IP address is manually set to the address of the gateway. When my service was upgraded, the IP address was still pointing at the address of the old gateway, which is no longer pingable. I cleared the address and rebooted to see if OPNsense could determine the address and it could not, so again, I had to manually set the address in gateway settings. I still have a pfSense system running and since it upgraded to BSD 14, it's having the same problem.

If there is anything I can do to help determine why this is happening, let me know.

21.7 Legacy Series / dpinger not running for WAN_DHCP6
« on: October 15, 2021, 03:33:03 am »
I updated my test system from 21.7.r_210 to 21.7.r_228 and dpinger is not running. I can't start it from the dashboard and rebooting doesn't help. To be sure nothing had gotten corrupted, I restored to the r_210 checkpoint. The problem didn't exist. I upgraded it to r_228 again. dpinger worked until the first reboot, then after rebooting, it would not start again.

This is in the log:

/status_services.php: The WAN_DHCP6 IPv6 gateway address could not be found, skipping.   

Any suggestions?

21.7 Legacy Series / Page Unresponsive
« on: August 14, 2021, 06:21:14 pm »
I'm running 21.7.r_95 and accessing the GUI using a Windows 10 21H1 client on a hyper-v server using the latest version of chrome. Since updating OPNsense, when I leave the GUI overnight and refresh it the next day, the GUI is hung and chrome displays the message page unresponsive. This has happened several times since I updated. Usually, I just kill the chrome tab and open another one, which works fine.

Today, I left it running and looked more closely. Using the windows task manager, I saw that initially, the system interrupts background process was using 100% of the CPU. Later, this transitioned to the desktop window manager and chrome. After a few minutes, the GUI came back to life. I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing this.

21.1 Legacy Series / DHCPv6 [LAN] Settings
« on: May 10, 2021, 05:12:54 am »
I just did a clean reinstall of 21.1. Normally, I prefer to display lease times in local time, not UTC. I found the DHCPv4 [LAN] settings in the usual place, but when I looked for the DHCPv6 settings, I noticed there is no page for [LAN] settings. Have these settings been moved somewhere else?

21.1 Legacy Series / Update Problems
« on: May 08, 2021, 07:00:56 pm »
I have a couple of OPNsense VMs, one running the release version and the other running the development version. This morning, I tried to update the development version from the web user interface and encountered errors with the repository. I tried to update the release version with the web user interface and encountered similar errors. I've attached screen captures. Is there a problem with my systems?

21.1 Legacy Series / OPNsense 21.7.a_314 Console Login Directly to Shell Mode
« on: April 07, 2021, 03:59:00 am »
I updated my development system to OPNsense 21.7.a_314. After the update, when I login to the console, it goes directly into shell mode. There are no obvious other problems. I've never encountered this before. Is this a known problem?

20.7 Legacy Series / Question about updating beta
« on: July 30, 2020, 01:40:53 am »
I'm running this version:

OPNsense 20.7.b_244-amd64
FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p20-HBSD
OpenSSL 1.1.1g 21 Apr 2020

I updated using the following"

opnsense-update

This results in:

Nothing to do.

opnsense-code core

This result in the following:

Fetching origin
warning: Pulling without specifying how to reconcile divergent branches is
discouraged. You can squelch this message by running one of the following
commands sometime before your next pull:

  git config pull.rebase false  # merge (the default strategy)
  git config pull.rebase true   # rebase
  git config pull.ff only       # fast-forward only

You can replace "git config" with "git config --global" to set a default
preference for all repositories. You can also pass --rebase, --no-rebase,
or --ff-only on the command line to override the configured default per
invocation.

Already up to date.

20.7 Legacy Series / Updated to OPNsense 20.7.b_156-amd64, dhcpd6 not starting
« on: May 18, 2020, 07:12:07 pm »
I updated my test system and after it restarted, dhcpd6 was not running and would not start. It was a while since I last updated it, so I bootstrapped to a previous version which does not have the problem, then updated to see if the problem returned.

After bootstrapping, here is the version:

OPNsense 20.1.6-amd64
FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p19-HBSD
OpenSSL 1.1.1g 21 Apr 2020

This version works properly.

After updating from the GUI, here is the version:

OPNsense 20.7.b_97-amd64
FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p19-HBSD
OpenSSL 1.1.1g 21 Apr 2020

This version works properly.

After updating from the command line (opnsense-update, opnsense-code core, make upgrade), here is the version:

OPNsense 20.7.b_156-amd64
FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p19-HBSD
OpenSSL 1.1.1g 21 Apr 2020

With this version, dhcpd6 will not start and the Windows 10 client cannot get an IPv6 address.

The only related message in the log is this:

Code: [Select]
opnsense-devel: /usr/local/etc/rc.bootup: Warning! dhcpd_dhcp6_configure() found no suitable IPv6 address on lan
My ISP requires the use of the "Directly send SOLICIT" setting, which appears to be missing.

19.7 Legacy Series / 19.7 installation on Hyper-V hangs at the "Select Task" step.
« on: August 06, 2019, 04:47:21 am »
Just so this doesn't get left behind, I reinstalled OPNsense from scratch on my windows server 2019 hyper-v and I experienced the same freezing as in the previous version. The first time was at the point of selecting guided setup. At this point, I interrupted using CTRL-C and logged in again as installer. It happened once or twice again further on. I'm using a generation 2 vm with secure boot disabled. The settings are default.

If you would like me to test anything, let me know.

19.7 Legacy Series / Problems with 19.7
« on: July 28, 2019, 09:30:50 pm »
I updated my release system to 19.7 today. There are two problems, which were both present in the pre-release versions.

The firmware reporter is reporting, "Unfortunately we have detected at least one programming bug."

Here is the error:

Code: [Select]
[28-Jul-2019 11:37:05 America/Vancouver] PHP Warning:  vsprintf(): Too few arguments in /usr/local/etc/inc/util.inc on line 986
The other problem is that Gateway Monitor (WAN_DHCP6) is not starting. There are no errors in any of the logs that appear to be related to this problem (although it could be that I'm not looking in the right place for the smoking gun). There is only one instance of dpinger running and that is for WAN_DHCP.

I also noticed that every time I try to start the gateway monitor, another instance of the above PHP warning is issued.

My offer still stands to make the system available for someone to take a look at.

General Discussion / No unsolicited RA from ISP edge router
« on: July 08, 2019, 01:09:48 am »
My ISP has an issue with some of their edge routers where they are not sending periodic unsolicited RA messages. This is happening with their Juniper edge routers. For their Alcatel/Nokia edge routers, unsolicited RA messages are sent every 20-30 minutes. The Juniper edge routers will respond to RS messages.

I'm not sure how this behaviour started. It may be that Juniper or one of their customers decided it was a feature. However, recently, Juniper started offering "no unsolicited ra" as selectable "Enhanced Subscriber Management feature". Here is a link: https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos/topics/reference/configuration-statement/no-unsolicited-ra-edit-enhanced-universal-edge-overrides.html.

The behaviour of the other *sense is inconsistent. Sometimes IPv6 will drop after 2 hours. If you save / apply the WAN I/F, it will restart. Other times, it will continue to work.

What is the behaviour of OPNsense if the edge router doesn't send an unsolicited RA? Is there a way to trigger OPNsense to send a solicited RS message for situations such as this? I would try this myself, but it's working properly for me.

19.1 Legacy Series / Windows Server 2019 Hyper-V Installation
« on: June 22, 2019, 06:18:58 pm »
I had to rebuild my hyper-v server, so I did a clean installation of OPNsense using the latest download, which is OPNsense-19.1.4-OpenSSL-dvd-amd64.iso. I created a generation 2 VM with secure boot disabled, two processors and 2048 of memory. On both NICs, VMQ, IPsec task offloading (512) and SR-IOV are enabled and all of the "advanced features" are disabled. Both NICS are connected to virtual switches.

I had to use CTRL-C a couple of times during the installation because the installer hung.

Aside from that, the installation was successful.

19.7 Legacy Series / LAN_TRACK6 Gateway with Unknown / Pending Status
« on: April 14, 2019, 06:33:04 pm »
I'm running OPNsense 19.7.a_516-amd64. I noticed a LAN_TRACK6 gateway with unknown status on the dashboard and pending status on the gateway status. I have never noticed this gateway before. The client has an IPV6 lease and IPv6 seems to be working properly.

Does anyone know what this gateway is for and why it has unknown / pending status?

General Discussion / RIPE Atlas
« on: March 17, 2019, 05:38:17 pm »
If you've never heard of the Atlas project, here is a link: https://atlas.ripe.net/.

Here is some information:

Quote
With your help, the RIPE NCC is building the largest Internet measurement network ever made. RIPE Atlas employs a global network of probes that measure Internet connectivity and reachability, providing an unprecedented understanding of the state of the Internet in real time.

The project is looking for people to host probes that will help to fill in gaps in the coverage. I believe they prefer dual-stack, but it probably depends on the situation. I got one of the probes a few weeks ago and it's interesting to see the information it's providing to the project. The probe is very small. I comes with a USB power supply, but I'm powering my probe with a USB port on one of my servers. If you're interested in contributing, it's very easy to apply for a probe.
