OPNsense on a standalone vmWare host 100% CPU

[Supermule]

Leave that for now... we have to get it running as it should on production software.

I've tried :

• BIOS/UEFI
• amd64/i386 installation (adapting cores in each case)
• Changing vmWare templates for guest OS
• Changing vmWare CPU values for the VM (changing number cores, High parts, expose harware virtualization, ...)

But no luck, still having CPU host stuck to 100% without high CPU ready values (between 0.01 to 0.9 %)
Here is the CPU consumption (similar in each case mentionned before) :


Any ideas ?

Thanks a lot for your help  ;)

I need to see the system....

And how its configured for ESXi....

To begin, thanks Supermule for your help to see my mistake : my LAN ip subnet was incorrect.

After fixing this, reinstall in 64b with 4 cores for each OPNsense, early all CPU of the ESXi host is used (i7-8559U CPU @ 2.70GHz with 8 logical cores).

Is it normal?

EDIT : I mean, does OPNsense need to use 6GHz with no traffic (where pfsense is using 100MHz)?
