Hi

did a complete reinstall, applied the xen package, all installed ok, however its version 6.2 xentools.

Whats required to get the package built to 6.5 xentools?

Hi

An update.

The modem pages are displayed, eventually, ie after minutes not seconds.
The logs show nothing that appears to relate to this issue (wan-lan igmp, lan to wan 5353)
The modem is straight connection via ethernet, 100 mbs.
The hardware employed is the same.
The opnSense setup is straight out of the box.
Access to the internet is fine.
The problem occurs with pfSense also.
The problem does not occur with Sophos UTM9, or an Asus RTN16. (Both linux based)
Proxy is not being used.
The modem is an adsl from Sky Broadband, model SR102.

Weird!!!

Hi

At the bottom of each page there is a link to

https://www.opnsense.org/?gui22

Which doesnt appear to exist.

Hi

if I curl from the system I normally use to access modem and internet, I get the page back.
if i http the modem, I get the name of the page at the top, but no page, ie blank,
however I can see the modem pages source in the debug panes, and there are no errors detected.
i have also  tried this on other systems, which when using other software (no not pfSense), its worked perfectly.
i did try pfSense in the past, and wasted lots of time following the instructions re accessing modem, adding interfaces, to no avail.

There is no evidence in the filter log of any access to the modem from the various systems.
Connection directly to the modem, no problem.

Proxy and IDS are currently disabled.

Confused

PS just tried to access the modem on the iPad, eventually, I get the page, but just text, and hyperlinks.

Hi

thanks for making the package available.  :)

There are a couple of extra steps to be done, courtesy of Makefile.feld

# echo "xenguest_enable=\"YES\"" >> /etc/rc.conf.local
# ln -s /usr/local/etc/rc.d/xenguest /usr/local/etc/rc.d/xenguest.sh

Start the service manually or reboot.

# service xenguest start

Now you can see the interfaces and memory usages correctly.

Also you can halt/reboot the vm without going into the console.
Force halting/rebooting screwed up my non xenguest vm  >:(

The only problem so far is you cannot export the vm for backup, or transfer,
I suspect this is due to the xen utilities being 6.2 on a 6.5 system.

PS slight problem, since I have upgraded, the xenguest program will not start on boot.

I have reinstalled and rebooted etc, no luck, starting the service manual works, but is not really ideal.
Anything in the updates that would change the boot startup?

PPS

Reinstalled from the iso, updated to latest, install xenquest, imported backup, now working!!!

Totally Confused

Hi

That would be good. I assume it would be installed via the console method?

Also the only version I have found so far is for Citrix XenServer 6.2, version 6.5 would be better.

Presumably you would have to build the package?, is it difficult?

Thanks

Hi

From my lan, 192.168.1.0/24 I cannot access the modem gui on the WAN, 192.168.0.0/24.

I have no problem accessing the internet.

The modem is connected as an ethernet connection, no bridging, virtual addresses, ppoe etc.

The previous software products I have used, and small stand alone routers have had no issues connecting.

I have the same problem with pfSense, and the solution the pfSense board offered does not work.

Would appreciate if anyone can assist in sorting this out.

Thanks

Hi

I am testing OPNSense within a vm, and I cannot seem to be able to install xentools (xe-guest-utilities).

Is it possible?

Thanks

Aimee
