25.7, 25.10 Series / WebGUI isn't accessible. Live ...
Last post by Lymba_Sysm - Today at 05:13:38 AM
I'm new to setting up OPNsense and so far until I encountered this issue, I haven't had any. The live environment seemingly works fine (which I would expect) but whenever I try to access the Webgui, I'm hit with this. Now so far based off every video I've seen, this should work. I've done everything correctly as shown. I'm at a bit of a loss. I've tried both ports incase one of them was the assigned LAN instead of WAN, Checked the Starlink app for what DCHP assigned opnsense IP, that didn't work either. Changed my DNS settings in windows so it was using Google over cloudflare and viseversa.

I must be missing a diagnostic step here, what should I do next?

Virtual private networks / Re: WireGuard Exporter Tool
Last post by JMini - Today at 05:12:46 AM
I don't understand why there isn't an export button for the conf files. If you don't copy/paste during peer creation, you're out of luck.
You can't even build the conf file from the information in the peer details. No access to the Private Key

Last post by neek - Today at 04:06:57 AM
It looks like when it tries to create the UDP bind on my openvpn interface, that fails (192.168.99.x, below). My guess is the system is bringing up adguardhome before openvpn has had a chance to start and create that interface. In my config, I only see interfaces where I want adguardhome to run. I don't see an option for disabling just UDP on one of the interfaces. When I temporarily disabled adguardhome on the whole VPN network, it did come up successfully.

Piece of the log from the failed launch at boot

Yikes.

Don't see any errors in the dnsmasq log - just the usual DHCPREQUEST/DHCPACK/RTR-SOLICIT/RTR-ADVERT etc.

Last post by dmurphy - Today at 03:50:15 AM
For sure having an issue with dnsmasq.  Restarted the process not 24 hours ago, and its memory consumption continues to balloon.

The process has a 9.5gb memory size, 5.4gb resident.

We have some kind of a memory leak.  About to restart the process - when (not if) it crashes my entire network takes a nosedive with no DHCP or local zone DNS service.

Any suggestions or ideas?

Opnsense 25.7.9

edit: Just restarted the process; now the process size is 17MB; resident less than 5MB.  This is a lot more in line with what I'd expect.

Tutorials and FAQs / OPNsense under Proxmox - Why O...
Last post by spetrillo - Today at 01:16:36 AM
I am still struggling with this. I have made major changes to my VLAN structure but this still is not working. So let me step through my setup.

VLANs:

VLAN 2: Network devices and APs
VLAN 3: Servers
VLAN 10: Home wireless
VLAN 12: IoT wireless
VLAN 20: Streaming

My Proxmox server has an onboard 1 gig NIC. I have added a two port 10 gig PCIe adapter, as well as a USB 2.5 gig adapter. Proxmox UI is on USB adapter(vmbr0.2). OPNsense VLANs are on the 10 gig ports(vmbr1 and vmbr2). OPNsense WAN is on the onboard NIC(vmbr3).

My Proxmox networking config is as follows:

iface enp2s0f0 inet manual

auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet manual
        bridge-ports enp2s0f0
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0
        bridge-vlan-aware yes
        bridge-vids 2,3,20
#FW 2,3,20

iface enp2s0f1 inet manual

auto vmbr2
iface vmbr2 inet manual
        bridge-ports enp2s0f1
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0
        bridge-vlan-aware yes
        bridge-vids 10,12
#FW 10,12

iface eno1 inet manual

auto vmbr3
iface vmbr3 inet dhcp
        bridge-ports eno1
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0
#FW WAN
iface enx6c1ff70ad1e0 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet manual
        bridge-ports enx6c1ff70ad1e0
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0
        bridge-vlan-aware yes
        bridge-vids 2,3
#VMs 2,3

auto vmbr0.2
iface vmbr0.2 inet static       
        address 192.168.1.66/26
        gateway 192.168.1.65
#Mgmt


My OPNsense VM config is attached. I have a managed 1 gig switch I am testing with. Port 1 of the switch is connected to my PC and is configured for vlan 2 untagged. Port 2 of the switch is connected to the first port of the 10 gig adapter and both vlan2/3 are set to tagged. VLAN 2 is the LAN side of my OPNsense VM, with an IP of 192.168.1.1/26. I configure my PC side for 192.168.1.10/26 and assign the adapter to VLAN 2 also. When I try to ping 192.168.1.1 from my PC(192.168.1.10) I get nothing. I fully expected the LAN side of the OPNsense firewall to respond, but it is not.

Have I done anything incorrect? I believe the networking is correct but I do not know for sure.

Thanks,
Steve

Q-Feeds (Threat intelligence) / q-feeds feedback
Last post by mokaz - December 10, 2025, 11:44:11 PM
Hi there,

I tested the free plugin and it works according to plan, thanks!

A few items though:
- I guess that with the Community - Self-Provisioned licensing scheme, the provided threat feeds include OSINT only. Are you intending to list what is included within your OSINT package? I.E: all the Q-Feeds triggering threats here were part of my next in line ingress policy object which is the IPSUM_L1 threat intelligence feed.

- I may think that the plugin does not release/give control back to OPNsense once the inactive administrative session timeout has been reached. One may still click on the three Q-Feeds menus. Although, while nothing refreshes within the Q-Feeds menus, once you click anywhere else within the GUI, you're routed to the usual OPNsense login page, which is the normal behavior under these circumstances.

- Why the "Security" new menuitem? why not simply within the "Services > Q-Feeds Connect" menu directly? Perhaps there are other unknown to me plugins that uses the "Security" menuitem although if you're the only one, I don't see the point TBH.

Let me know,
Thanks
