Serial console on Protectli FW6D?
« on: April 21, 2021, 06:29:44 pm »
I installed OPNsense on my Protectli FW6D, which has a built in serial console port. However, I thought I could get the OPNsense console menu over said console port, but I'm not having any luck. All I get when connected to the console port at 115200 is validate_packet got 22 over and over.

I've fiddled with the Settings/Administration/Console settings to no avail. Is what I'm trying to do possible? Basically get the same OPNsense menu over the serial port as you get when you SSH in.

I should add when I reboot OPNsense that over the console port I do see all the boot messages. But can't access the 'ssh' OPNsense menu.

I opened a support ticket with Protectli, and they came back with a solution. I now get the 'ssh' console menu via the built-in serial port. However, I still get the "validate_packet got 22" constantly on that screen. The proper console config screenshot is attached to this message.
