Last post by OPNenthu - January 30, 2026, 04:04:59 PM
I can reproduce this also and I think I found a cause.

I have a group named "IG_OUT_WAN" that I renamed to "IG_OUT_WAN_TEST."  The internet went down.  Then I went to view the rules in the new UI (mine are migrated) and I can see that the Source network name was not updated and still reflects "IG_OUT_WAN."

You cannot view this attachment.

Renaming the group back to "IG_OUT_WAN" to match the network name restored the connectivity.

If you think this is a bug, it would be great if you open an issue on github with simple steps to reproduce. Thank you :)

OK - I can verify this is a bug because I tested this on my live network during a planned network maintenance window. Unfortunately, all network access went down when doing the FW group renaming in the same way I did this in the test environment on real hardware. I would not recommend changing a FW group name until this is resolved.

There have been some changes upstream in FreeBSD that should be of interest here, both in STABLE 14 & 15:

- https://reviews.freebsd.org/D51475 sctp, tcp, udp: improve deferred computation of checksums
- https://reviews.freebsd.org/D51686 vtnet: fix translation between mbuf and virtio flags

[added as this thread is one of the top google searches related to freebsd tcp offload & checksum - I hope that's helpful for somebody]

Es war wirklich ein Verständnis Problem. Unifi Bezeichnet das alles komisch. Mir hat das Grundverständnis von OPNsense einfach gefehlt, ich habe es mitlerweile verstanden. Sorry :)

ist sozusagen solved

26.1 Series / dnsmasq not using specified dn...
Last post by crt333 - January 30, 2026, 03:40:21 PM
I have a vlan that routes all traffic through a wireguard tunnel.  In dnsmasq I had been using dns-server[6] option to specify the use of the wireguard dns server in the tunnel, rather than the opnsense dns server. This worked before the upgrade, but now that vlan is just using the opnsense dns, rather than the specified server. I deleted the old DHCP option, and re-entered this on the specific vlan interface, but it still doesn't work.

Suggestions?

And of course that wasn't the fix at all. Tried pretty much everthing, but apparently is the intel 226-v Nic combined with freebsd and QUIC a very poor combination. Apparently, linux handles it nicely enough so it isn't noticed, but freebsd doesn't and exposes the problem.

I can't be the only one facing this problem with this Nic, ipv6 and QUIC. I know, I know, just block UDP 443 and everything is fine. But that's just a quick and dirty trick. Would be nice if this could be handle nicely by freebsd.

Slightly offtopic, but even tho this isn't a CISCO device their 'Best Practice Guides' do advise to skip VLAN 0 to 5 when setting up your network so when you feel like it please look into that and decide if you want to change your network setup or not :)

Usually the 8-port version is pretty much the same price, but the 5-port version is OK too ofcourse! :)
