Hi everyone,

I've switched to OPNsense a couple of weeks ago and i really like it so far but I have one "problem" that I can't seem to fix.
I have IPS mode enabled on all my interfaces without any issues but if i try to enable it for my LAN network, messages like the ones down below appear in my console:
kernel: 130.718843 [ 760] generic_netmap_dtor Restored native NA 0
kernel: 002.910772 [ 262] generic_find_num_queues called, in txq 0 rxq 0
kernel: 002.910757 [ 254] generic_find_num_desc called, in tx 1024 rx 1024
kernel: 002.910735 [ 760] generic_netmap_dtor Restored native NA 0
kernel: 002.910721 [ 262] generic_find_num_queues called, in txq 0 rxq 0
kernel: 002.910702 [ 254] generic_find_num_desc called, in tx 1024 rx 1024


I did some research but all the solutuions i could find don't seem to work or are outdated..

My setup:

Hardware:
2x Virtual NICs emulated E1000 [working]
1x Intel CT Desktop Intel 82574L  (PCIe passtrough) [working]
1x Onboard LAN Intel 82574L (PCIe passtrough) [netmap messages]

Hardware offloading:
Everything disabled

IDS/IPS Settings:
Enabled: x
IPS mode: x
Promisc mode: x
Pattern matcher: Aho-Corasick

Oh and I do have two tagged VLANs (One of them is my LAN) on the NIC that causes these messages to appear.


Did anyone else encounter similar problems on a setup like this? And if so, what did you do to get rid of them?
Thanks in advance :)

This should only appear one time when starting IPS and is only an info

Yeah, that's what I've read too.
Just wanted to be sure because it seemed strange that everytime i turn my ips on i get 44 lines written to my console. Also these messages only appear if i turn it on for one specific interface.

So i can just ignore them and everything should be fine?
