Hi!

I'm using this GPS:

BU-353N5 GPS Receiver

Are there any configuration that I could use to optimize it's performance?  Right now I'm just using "Generic".  I'm getting a lot of "False Ticker".  Dunno if it's configuration related

@Seimus

Thank you very much to your insights.  I really appreciate it.

My new experimental setting:

Pipe:

1.  Queue 3

Rules:

1.  added tcp ack rule on top of the other rules

Results

It looks like latency went down by 10ms.  Will be running this for a couple of days


* The bursting I meant was the speed we are getting from the ISP.  I'm on a 600Mbps plan and the speed burst between 200 to 600Mbps

@Seimus

Thanks for the reply can you help with a guide on how I should proceed.  So far I experimented with the ff:

Pipes:

1.  Queue set to 2.  Found out this works the best specially when using VPN from the client side.  If I set this to default sometimes speed under VPN from client side do not burst.  It's stuck to 10 or 100Mbps.  My line is 600Mbps

Queue:

1.  Created a priority upload queue with weight of 10 and the rest is set to 1.

Rules:

1. Sequence 1 is for download.  Sequence 2 is for upload. Sequence 3 is priority upload.

Result.

Priority Upload is not getting any hit.  Changed the rules sequence by putting priority upload to first.  I'm now getting hits.  However, VPN speeds originating from clients sometimes do not burst.



*VPN is set using a TorGuard app in the client's machine.  It's NOT set in OPNsense

I was wondering if we could prioritize acks inside the pipe to process this first as this may help with the latency in local network during heavy load

Is there a way to know if your ISP is doing what you just described?  Or this is just trial and error? My ISP uses IPoE over vlan and multicast vlan.  Following your instruction, this would be 1500 + 4 + 4 MTU is now 1508?

Restarted Service and it's now working.  Thanks

New version v0.107.54 is available and it's not updating in OPNsense v2.7.8

Hi!

I have a spare static IP.  I am planning to use exclusively for a host in my Lan.net. What would be the best practice to do this?

So, far I'm thinking the ff:

1.  Create Virtual IP with the Spare Static IP
2.  Create a Rule in LAN for the host using the Virtual IP as GateWay

or

3.  Create a port forwarding Rule

4. Crete OutBount NAT Rule

For 3 & 4 not sure how to do this.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.  How about other plugins and widget.  Are they now all compatible with 24.7?

Hi mimugmail!

Just need to ask if your plug-ins would work under version 24.7?

I'm kinda relectant to upgrade at the moment as it may break some things

Thanks

Does anyone know the equivalent of "Queue Length" of pfsense in Opnsense?

There's a comprehensive guide in pfsense.  Just convert it to opnsense.  It works perfectly well.  Pay attention to the footnote at it has other tips on fqcodel parameters

https://isc.sans.edu/diary/Securing+and+Optimizing+Networks+Using+pfSense+Traffic+Shaper+Limiters+to+Combat+Bufferbloat/27102

I get these also in OpnSense and pfSene.  The maintainer of suricata in pfsense said that this is because some rules and designed for Snort which may not be compatible with Suricata

While fixing the plugin, we may want to upgrade the controller as new version is also available.  Thanks

Unifi plugin is now missing after opnsense upgrade
