German - Deutsch / Re: Von ISC- zu KEA DHCP wechs...
Last post by MarroniJohny - December 13, 2025, 05:59:09 PMHoi
Danke.
Ja, den Schalter hatte ich natürlich umgelegt. Hintergrund ist der, dass ja ISC DHCP nicht mehr weiter entwickelt wird. Aber da brauche ich glaube ich gar nicht KEA DHCP, sondern Dnsmasq, ist das richtig? Den habe ich mal soweit, dass eine IP bezogen wird im LAN. Da habe ich jetzt auch Internet.
Kannst Du mir bitte noch kurz bestätigen, dass Dnsmasq das richtige für mich ist, bevor ich alle VLANs und Interfaces einrichte?
Danke.

Last post by mzurhorst - December 13, 2025, 05:57:02 PMDanke Patrick, das war mir nicht klar.
Dann werde ich DNSmasq nächstes Wochenende auf Port 53 setzen und von dort aus weiter zu AGH und fertig.
Bin gerade nicht zuhause.
Aber ich würde wirklich wetten, dass manchmal ein "ping opnsense" nicht klappt, ein "ping opnsense.zurhorst.baerl" hingegen schon.

Last post by hina - December 13, 2025, 04:58:58 PMYes that cc0/cc1 interface belongs to Chelsio T6225-CR.
I'll test by disabling netmap features first, then ra/dhcpv6 then finally dhcpv4.

General Discussion / Re: Settings up VLANS.
Last post by coffeecup25 - December 13, 2025, 03:26:02 PMpfSense and OPNsense are nearly identical in many respects. Only the menus and screen verbiage are different.
Perhaps some VLAN oriented videos for pfSense can get you started. You can learn the concepts that apply to your situation and adapt them to OPNsense fairly easily I would assume.
Also, I got into the need for isolated home network parts later than most. I realized that VLANs are sometimes over-thought. It also seems that while every router-included VLAN has common elements with every other one, everyone does their VLAN differently.
And sometimes it only takes a smart switch to do all the work, ignoring the router completely. TP-Link has software specifically for that purpose. I had a TP-Link oriented VLAN once that isolated several ports quite well. I hung an access point off one and put my IOT devices on it. It later failed, however by lowering my entire network to 100mbits for an unknown reason. I suspect it needed a firmware update. The configuration I just described is very common and does not need you to create a VLAN or edit the insides of OPNsense in any way. My VLAN was simple. If you need to nest switches for various VLAN segments, that is outside my range of experience, but the switches might still be able to accommodate it without editing the router. As I said, I believe some people radically overthink their VLAN needs.
Briefly, routers are used to communicate among different networks. VLANS are used to isolate logical networks on the same subnet and they generally require a managed switch. Switches and switch groups are generally associated with a network. Two networks in one router would normally require two switches. Some wifi routers can get clever with guest networks, but not all. and some are not isolated at all.
That switch looks super powered. It should be quite reliable managing a VLAN.
Good luck. Try the pfSense videos. Or look up TP-Link VLAN instructions, google makes it easy. If you are using TP-Link, use the 802.1Q options. It's very easy.

Last post by Patrick M. Hausen - December 13, 2025, 03:11:00 PMQuote from: mzurhorst on December 13, 2025, 02:42:01 PMWenn ich den computer nur mit "hostname" erreichen möchte statt "hostname.searchdomain", hätte dies dann einen Unterschied ob Unbound, AGH oder DNSmasq der DNS-Server auf Port 53 ist?
Nein, das passiert alles auf dem jeweiligen Client. Der DHCP-Server muss den Clients die Domain oder eine Liste von Domains mitgeben. Die Resolver-Library hängt die Domain dann an die Hostnamen an. Der DNS-Server verändert niemals die Anfragen, mit den der Client ihn bewirft.

Since the solution involves spending money and reading other people guides, I will simply bite the bullet and go with a Unify Gateway.
It almost physically hurts to listen to your plans to waste money.
Seriously, read something. It's not a punishment and it saves money.
As passeri stated, IOT on 2.4GHz in the form of a 2nd AP on the new port is all you need. Amazon Resale offers them as returns for pennies on the dollar. Or, just but a new older AC model. Lots of IOT devices use 2.4 GHz only. Range extenders also help, depending on your situation. People seem to return new ones because they get confused setting them up. Very cheap sometimes.

Hardware and Performance / DEC697 FW vs virtual build / S...
Last post by lukas.liechti - December 13, 2025, 02:46:44 PMShortly some information what i had and what happends.
Befor i bought the DEC697 i was running opnsense on a VM (4 Cores and 4 Gig RAM) with a NIC (you can find it in the link).
NIC: 2-Port- Gigabit Ethernet-Networkcard
The VM runs on Proxmox and i was getting 1 Giga IN and OUT without any problems. I only had low VPN-Connections (aprox. 10Mbit).
I thought it would be about the encrypting and so on which is no well possible in a VM.
This was running now around 1 year and i wanted to get better VPN Performance and also get the Firewall out oft he virtualisation.
The VM-Firewall was also running on 25.7 the lasts months.
Now i got the DEC697, with ist 5 Gbit of Firewall and 600 Mbit of VPN (IPSec).
I did the following:
Traffic Inbound / Outbound / First 600Mbit download / Second 950Mbit Upload ??
Virtual Machine / Performance
DEC679 / Performance
How to finde the bottelneck of the probleme here?

I did the following:
- 2 days ago i installed and update the firmware (also to 25.7 over serial-interface).
- Imported the Backup from the old Firewall (VM-Version Community) also into the Community (DEC697)
- Reasigned the Interfaces, changed the rules.
- Confirmed the changes and was after a few minutes back online
- I did a speedtest and had seen the following results
Traffic Inbound / Outbound / First 600Mbit download / Second 950Mbit Upload ??

Last post by SenseX - December 13, 2025, 02:42:33 PMHi,
I've noticed that commas are placed incorrectly, and I'm also seeing commas used in numbers where I wouldn't expect them.
Could someone please explain why this is happening and how I can correct it?
