Hm... Strangly, after closing my browser (firefox) and starting it again the issue was resolved... Don't know what this was, strange indeed. We'll see if it happens again.

Yes, I've tried to update several times now. Also after a reboot, but no luck.
I am getting the same output in the console.

26.1 Series / Destination NAT: Very small sc...
Last post by flushell - Today at 12:00:01 PM
It noticed an annoying (probably cosmetic) issue in my installation after migrating to new rules, although it may have been present before the migration to the new rules. I have multiple Port Forward rules - Now called Destination NAT in 26.1. The screen with the rules is only 1.5 lines big, that is unusable. It is scrollable though. See screenshot. I also tries the light theme, but the issue is still there.

I've just purchased a business licence to try this out. I have followed the documentation I could find and am able to log in with Entra ID however I can't quite figure out how to configure group based permissions. Frustratingly I can't seem to find a specific guide for setting up OIDC with Entra ID.

So how do groups work? I don't see anything useful in the logs either

Does this continue to happen if you try the upgrade again?

High availability / Re: Automatic XMLRPC Sync not ...
Last post by Luke - Today at 11:32:59 AM
ok, well it turns out I am indeed stupid; I clearly did not do a good job searching (in my defence it was the early hours of the morning).

Apparently automatic sync was disabled in v20.1.

I'll drop some references here in the unlikely event that anyone else is as dumb as me:
OPNsense Documentation
HASync / XMLRPC remove legacy push on changes
(problem with automatic sync of xmlrpc - encode idna message in log - this mentions the version it was disabled in and links to #4000 above)
The configuration is not synchronized between the primary and backup OPNsense
XMLRPC Sync doesn't sync automatically

Apologies for my idiocy; I'll go sit in the corner :(

Quote from: nero355 on February 01, 2026, 04:57:50 PMIt's one of their weirdest products ever :
- € 200 for the Switch
- € 90 for the adapter

If you can get by with a PoE injector as Patrick suggested, then the non-PoE version of the same switch is the better deal.  But at that point the Mikrotik with its 8x 2.5GbE ports is practically begging, even with the fan.

QuoteAnd add to that Netgear and HPE switches.

I haven't tried the professional Netgear switches and I do expect better of them, but I had a terrible experience with a cheaper Netgear smart switch and had to return it.  It was leaking RAs across the VLANs.

We've had terrible experiences with professional Netgear switches regarding port speeds and compatibilities. Even if it works, for the homeuser Netgear switches the interface is terrible.

HPE Aruba might be on the expensive side.

Hi,

I've tried updating to 26.1 in the console.
After fetching the packages etc, I got the message: "The upgrade was aborted due to an error."
I am left in the dark here, because I don't know what the error is.

Console output:

Fetching packages-26.1-amd64.tar: ......................... done
Fetching base-26.1-amd64.txz: ...... done
Extracting packages-26.1-amd64.tar... done

Please reboot.

The upgrade was aborted due to an error.
