22.7 Legacy Series / how to stop hanging update

« on: January 19, 2023, 10:00:20 pm »

So after doing an update and backup -  I updated to 22.7_4, and my router did not auto restart.

So I did windows troubleshooting of the connection, and after a bit my router rebooted.

I then logged back into my console, and saw a lot of package updates waiting so I selected update, and it has been hung up at nss-3.18 pkg for hours now.

How do I stop the 'updating'/running?

I have the Error Report, but I do not know what parts may be helpful here...

I have OPNSense installed on ProtectLi box -

Currently running OPNsense 22.7_4 (amd64/OpenSSL) at Thu Jan 19 11:14:42 PST 2023

Tutorials and FAQs / Q - openssl-1.1.1m_2,1 is vulnerable: How to solve

« on: March 17, 2022, 11:52:46 pm »

Hello -

After upgrading to opnsense 22.1.3, I got the message that my flavor of SSL was being let go and that I should switch to openSSL instead, I did so.  However now I'm getting a security vulnerability warning. 

I do my research and see where my version 111m is vulnerable but the fix is in version 111m - how do I update my openssl?  I switched to it from my settings tab, I have no idea where else to find it, nor why it doesn't auto-update it's self.....

Thanks for your help,

General Discussion / Just getting started and new to all of it - trouble with switch/settings

« on: August 27, 2021, 01:39:54 am »

Hello ~

Soooo I have some questions - I have a protectli 6 port with OPNsense pre-installed, and I've updated it to  21.7.1-amd64

After using Ethernet to direct connect to my opns I did the updates and then added a user and disabled root.

I then connected my TP-Link 8 port to my computer and the LAN port on opns box - it worked for any devices I attach to that switch in my office - Yea!

Here's where I run into trouble - I then connect another switch (Tp-Link 5 port) to em2 on my opns box - and enabled it from Interfaces in opns.  I noticed that my LAN was already enabled (probably why it was working) and so I assumed I should enable my second interface for the other switch in another room.  But nothing I connect to that switch will access the internet.  I know nothing about networking, but started this journey because I want a home network which is 90% wired, and much more secure all around. 

Now there is a lot to this stuff, and I mostly just guessed at trying to set up the second switch - So I'm here asking for your help.... I set the em2 to use static ip4 like my LAN interface, but with the IP of 192.168.10.20/28
all other settings are the same.  OPNS shows all 3 working (green) - LAN WAN & em2 on the dashboard.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thank you
