AQC107 NIC not listed

[2Stoned]

Hi there

I'm trying to setup OPNsense in a KVM VM under Arch Linux. I would like to use the firewall for the host and other VMs. So internally I'd like to use vswitches. However, on the WAN  side I'd like to use a physical NIC. But my passed-through Aquantia AQC107 won't show up. I installed OPNsense, but haven't done any configuration yet. When assigning interfaces I only see a vNIC.

Is this a known issue due to missing drivers or should I look somewhere else?

Any hints that could resolve this issue are highly appreciated. :)
Thank you very much in advance!

Check whether driver is included and run

Code Select Expand

# kldload if_atlantic.ko
on CLI. If nic gets listed, add a load option to /boot/loader.conf.local

Thank you very much @hbc for your reply. The command returns:

Code Select Expand

kldload: can't load if_atlantic.ko: No such file or directoy

How can I insert the driver at this point?

Thank you very much in advance.

Type

Code Select Expand

# sysctl kern.module_path
or
# kldconfig -r
to get the module path and check for the module. If it's listed, add path to kdload command. If not listed, then drivers for your nic are not compiled in.

Thank you for you assistance!

The paths are:

Code Select Expand

/boot/kernel
/boot/modules
/boot/dtb
/boot/dtb/overlays

Have can I read these files? Nano is not installed and vi just returned garbage. :/

Sorry, I never used a *BSD based OS...

These are directories. Just use ls to list its content.

This does not speak for my deductive skills... :o The presence of

Code Select Expand

/boot/dtb/overlays would have told me that...

Unfortunately, a

Code Select Expand

if_atlantic.ko is nowhere to be seen.
There is a freeBSD driver available on the aquantia Website. (Or at least a zip package with a makefile) How can I add it to the VM / the install ISO?

Thank you for your patience! Very kind of you!

The port for aquantia-atlantic-kmod should be available to install with pkg if you can pass in another NIC to your VM.
