Quote from: franco on September 01, 2026, 01:48:45 PMCan you create a PR for https://github.com/opnsense/ports preferably under opnsense/netreflector to avoid clashing with an eventual FreeBSD inclusion? The files can stay the same, but so we know it's out of tree.

When troubleshooting it's worth checking the log files - https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/logging_services.html
The simplest way to see if OPNsense is seeing a DHCP request on VLAN 90 is to look at Kea's log file: Services -> Kea DHCP -> Log File
This will most likely open with a view listing Warning. To see DHCP requests and acknowledgements, from the drop-down list select Informational.
To capture packets use the packet capture tool - https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/diagnostics_interfaces.html#packet-capture
Interfaces -> Diagnostics -> Packet Capture
- Select the interface
- Enable Promiscuous
- Set Protocol to UDP
- Set Port to 67
- Set Count to 2
- Click on 'Start'
Connect a device to VLAN 90. If after a few minutes the job is still running it would be worth seeing if a request was received by clicking on the "View capture in standard detail" icon.

- Connect a laptop (or other device that you can manually configure) to the Wifi network, configure a static IP appropriate to the network, and then see if it can ping the router's IP on that network. That can tell you if there's any communication getting to the router at all.
- Maybe also try setting up a VLAN 90 access port on the switch and see if your tests change at all there.
- If you're using a centralized management interface for the network hardware, maybe check the switch and APs directly as well and make sure the configs are what you think they are.
