Any suggestions for running an SBC (Session Border Controller) for SIP/VoIP on an Opnsense box

Looking for Packages and Pros/ Cons/ Risks

I need it for running SIP phones on the network to an external provider, and I am looking for an economical and open-source solution to this.

I need it for more than one solution, one is 3cx, but it will be something else when done (Client is moving to a different VoIP provider). (I have looked at the PI5 but prefer it on the OPNSense box)

Thanks for reporting back, good to know that there is an explanation to that behavior. I'm not using Zen Armor and can't be of help here.

The RK3576 isn't fully supported by FreeBSD anyway.

25.7, 25.10 Series / Dnsmasq not responding to some...

I have a printer that makes DNS queries like any other device, mainly to reach machines on the LAN, but also to 3rd party services on the Internet. From what I can tell, Dnsmasq on OPNsense flat-out refuses to answer its DNS queries. I've done packet captures on the OPNsense device, to compare requests from my own machine with those of the printer's, and I don't know why they go unanswered. It waits and asks again with the search domain appended again, defensive-programming-style. I don't see anything blocking them when I watch the live view of the firewall when triggering queries from the printer.

Does anyone have any ideas about the cause, or what else I can do to diagnose it?

As a band-aid solution, I've had to configure it to use static IP addresses instead of names to get basic functionality, but that isn't sustainable.

Checking reviews, the UD90 uses a Phison controller and (apparently) correctly reported internal temperature. Seems like an odd fault.

On my Qubes machine I cloned the working settings I currently use for wireless to that lan. I currently, cannot connect to the internet. I know this did work at one point. Any idea what I might be getting stuck on connecting to a tor relay on my Qubes machine. I think this was working before the switch to kea.

I do have intrusion detection and intrusion prevention up, and tried taking both down with no luck so far. Any idea what might be blocking me from connecting to tor?

Virtual private networks / Wireguard VPN no longer works ...
Last post by grimelog - January 14, 2026, 03:13:58 AM
My setup used to work. What I could do for my rule set was switch my default outbound connection between my wireguard gateway, and non-vpn gateway. Currently, only the non-vpn gateway works. I've doubled checked and everything should be setup fine on Mullvad's end. For whatever reason nothing seems to be getting out of my Wireguard tunnel. Anyone know what might be going on here?

These settings used to work correctly I know for a fact. Maybe, I changed one thing that broke it. Have any tips for how to troubleshoot this?

I unfortunately don't have another SP UD90 drive on hand to verify this with. I may have the opportunity to test another one sometime in the next few weeks, but it's unlikely.

Ah, Ta. I'm aware of the auto-generated rules, and I'm not using VLANs. I added it out of frustration, really.

Rockchip has been in the headlines lately for not good reasons (license violations relating to FFMpeg code despite repeated requests to cease). JFYI.
