    @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: Interesting. I would have thought the initial reboot, which occurred as part of the upgrade, would have done the trick, but it took a second reboot, just now, to get things working. Glad you have it sorted. There was no difference in the output of usbconfig show_ifdrv at any point -- before or after unplugging/replugging the USB cable, nor after rebooting. ... Question: What would tell me whether or not a driver was loaded? If there were an attached driver, it should have shown up with the show_ifdrv command. If you use the command and look at the other usb devices, I think they will show attached drivers. I don't expect to see a driver attached to the ups, because there is a quirk that tells the OS to ignore that device (and not attach a driver). Look for idVendor and idProduct in the above output. The Vendor ID for your device is 0764, which corresponds to Cyber Power Systems, and the Product ID for your device is 0601, which is registered as "PR1500LCDRT2U UPS" (don't sweat an exact match for the name). You can see the quirk with the following command: [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: usbconfig dump_device_quirks | grep 0764 VID=0x0764 PID=0x0005 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0501 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0601 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: Your device is third on the list. The HID_IGNORE quirk says to ignore the device and not attach a driver. @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: You might consider adding this resolution to the release notes for 2.8. LOL... sorry, I don't have input to the release notes (I don't work here). While I wrote and maintain various packages, including NUT, I'm still just a volunteer. Most packages are actually written by volunteers.

    @EChondo What's your pfSense version ? The instructions are shown here : [image: 1753262126227-1acdc586-cb29-4148-9e36-81ade4e5e60c-image.png] A restart of a service will start by re creating their config files. If a certificate changed, it will get included. When the process starts, it will use the new certificate. @EChondo said in Issue with ACME Certificates Refresh & Restarting HAProxy: I haven't been able to confirm if the above works(mine just renewed, don't feel like doing it again just to test), so we'll see in 60 days I guess. No need to wait x days. You can re test / renew right away, as you are 'allowed' to renew a couple (5 max ?) of times per week.

    I've read through some other posts about this, but they either didn't say whether the proposed solution worked or they were very convoluted and difficult to understand. Here is our scenario: We have 6 locations--Las Cruces (LC), Sunland Park (SP), El Paso (EP), Abilene (ABI), Fort Worth (FW), and Plano (PL). LC and ABI have software that is accessed by the other 4 locations via VPN. There are WireGuard VPNs set up between LC and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL), and ABI and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL). There is also a WireGuard VPN connection between LC and ABI. LC and ABI have 2 internet connections. SP, EP, FW, and PL each have one internet connection. If the primary internet connection goes down at either LC or ABI and failover occurs to the secondary internet connection, is there a way to set up the WireGuard VPN connections so that they also failover without purchasing some 3rd party application? Thanks.

    Just a follow up, this is resolved. It was actually an issue with the provider that was not working. They had to update a MPLS record on their side. Once they did that, it worked as expected and fails over automatically.

    @belrpr If you do not specify a domain name in the DHCP server, it will use the domain name of the firewall. This is almost certainly what you want. Unless you are trying to achieve something very specific, I would recommend staying with the defaults (delete the domain name specification from both DHCP and from Avahi).

    Think about how network traffic works on a firewall. Once your LAN host initiates a conversation with another external host (through your LAN and then out of your WAN, for example), pfSense creates a state table entry that will now allow that external host to talk back to your internal LAN host. So if the external traffic starts a session it will be the "source" and your LAN host is the "destination". This would be the case if you clicked a web site URL. The web server will become the "source" of the web traffic and the browser and your LAN host the "destination" as the web server sends the HTTP or HTTPS traffic back to you. So who is "source" and who is "destination" changes back and forth during operation.

    Ok understood. I can set the 4 BGP Neighboors as Gateway. But these are non routable blackholes which request one of our RIPE-Public IP to be the source. Is that configurable? Source 1.1.1.1/32 -> GW 2.2.2.2/24 Like it can be done on Diag-Traceroute for the Source-Interface. But now for the whole system.

    iperf3 does json which way better than csv To be honest iperf on pfsense not really all that good anyway, its a router - you should be doing iperf "thru" it not to or from it. Go to one of the hundreds of places online to convert your json to csv or excel example http://convertcsv.com/json-to-csv.htm

    patched by me: https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/632 With this patch, when you revoke a certificate you need to go to radius config -> eap and "SAVE" to regenerate the CA+CRL file. Next patch coult be add a funcion similar to openvpn_refresh_crls() that should be called from /usr/local/www/system_crlmanager.php when you update all the other CRLs. This is my 2nd day on PFSense, so first I need to see if there is a functions file dedicated to components not installed as default and then write the function. Any advice?
