23.7 Legacy Series / Upgrade from 23,7 to 23.7.1_3, An API exception occurred

« on: August 09, 2023, 06:49:04 pm »

While upgrading from OPNsense 23,7 to 23.7.1_3 the following error did appear:

An API exception occurred:

/usr/local/opnsense/mvc/app/controllers/OPNsense/Core/Api/FirmwareController.php:41: Class "OPNsense\Base\ApiMutableModelControllerBase" not found

The upgrade process did continue and OPNsense seems to work just fine after the reboot

So no idea what this message means but just mentioned it.

22.1 Legacy Series / DNS requests are first send to the internet

« on: June 28, 2022, 09:39:30 pm »

Since the upgrade to OPNsense 22.1.9 I have this problem:

In the LAN DHCP server there are a couple of static mappings with a hostname set. Before I could ping the hostname and get the internal IP address back. Some of these hostnames also exist on the internet. I have set my OPNsense as DNS server for my clients but when I now ping a hostname that also exists on the internet I get the internet IP address back and not the local IP address. If I ping a hostname that only exists on the OPNsense and not on the internet I get the local IP address back. What has changed in version 22.1.9 that causes this behaviour and how can it be fixed?

SOLVED:
Restarting my PC did not resolve the issue but a IPCONFIG /FLUSHDNS did. I still do not understand how this could happen but for now it has been solved!

19.1 Legacy Series / IPoE

Does OPNsense have support for IPoE WAN connections. In particular for KPN Corporate Internet through IP over Ethernet (IPoE) (also known as Numbered Link)?

Hardware and Performance / OPNsense on Fitlet2

« on: February 09, 2019, 09:26:34 pm »

Today I finally was able to migrate from pfSense to OPNsense on my Fitlet2 mini PC. With the version 19.1 which is based on FreeBSD 11.2 I could overcome the previous problems with the Intel Celeron J3455 CPU (Apollo Lake series). Everything looks good, the down- and upload speeds are about the same as with pfSense > 800Mbit DL and > 900Mbit UL.
