I have a problem with connecting to my lan UNraid server. I am writing local IP and there is time-out in my FireFox. In the Services ---> DHCPv4 ---> Leases there is server. I have tried to add unraid.net to Services ---> Unbound DNS ----> Access Lists.

Server was working under "normal TP-link" router.

What do I have to do to connect with UNraid web UI?




What are you attempting to do?  You don't need to do anything with Access Lists.

If you just want to connect to Unraid with the machine name and not the IP, you need to check the two register DHCP lease options in the General screen for Unbound.  Make sure to restart Unbound afterwards.

If that's not the case then please provide more information.

First of all CJ, than you for your response. I am trying to connect from LAN PC to LAN Unraid server by typing LAN IP (192.168.1.7) of the server in FireFox. Seems like Unraid server is out of reach, but you can see Unraid server on the screen in first post. So I think OPNsense BOX can see the server. LAN PC and LAN Unraid server are connected to 4x2,5GbE router BOX with N5100 CPU. I have crossed the ports in the BOX. There is no switch. Internet connection is working on the PC side.

OPNsense is not a switch. To turn multiple ports into a software switch similar to a consumer router you need to configure a LAN bridge:

Or use a separate switch.

Patrick M. Hausen I recognize you from the TrueNAS forum :) Small world.  I have crossed/bridged the ports on the router BOX. PC and Unraid server have similar IP from DHCP 192.168.1.6 and 192.168.1.7, so I think bridge works? I am not sure.  I am waiting on 2,5GbE and SFP+ switch from abroad, so then I will test it out on the same port from the box.

How? Did you follow the documentation? Specifically did you set the two tunables from step six of the guide? If you didn't that would explain why it's not working.

Is there a reason you're not using a switch?  They're cheap and will perform faster and reduce the load on your OPNsense.

I am having the same issue. total noob, so bear with me. I have multiple VLANS, my home net is on VLAN10. OpnSense is 192.168.5.1/24, VLAN10 is 192.168.10.*/24
Unraid is on 192.168.10.80. I am on a laptop with 192.168.10.39. I cannot ping 192.168.10.80, SMB does not work and now on Unraid, I am unable to refresh dockers either.

This whole setup was fine on my Netgear that decided to commit suicide during a firmware upgrade.
I have Unifi Switch with two AP powered by the switch. Irrespective of whether I am hardwired to the switch or on wifi, the pings and stuff do not work.

The Unraid server is connected to one of the non-POE ports of the switch and have a STATIC IP address. The laptop i am using is on WIFI. ethernet also doesn't change any situation.

Devices on the same network i.e. 192.168.10.X/24 won't go through your router, unless you have a misconfiguration. They talk to each other via the switch only.
