    @microserfs and what IP was that - clearly your current IPv6 address is not block that I show you connected with.. And the only other IPv4 I see you using is not blocked.. You would have to let me know what IP you were coming from that was blocked.. Send it to me via PM if you don't want to make it public.

    Name it "run.sh", copy to pf and chmod according documentation
    https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/development/boot-commands.html#shell-script-option
    You will see messages in the system log like those quoted in the script after logger command.

    I would just host it on he.net or dyndns or the domain registrar or something.

    Else you'll need to use the bind package.

    The book is available at the link in my sig. There is no pdf download.

    Not supposed to resurrect this post but pcengines had just enabled AMD Core Performance Boot feature:

    https://3mdeb.com/firmware/amd-cpu-boost/

    Anyone fancy trying out?

    Thanks for the link, I can't compare as I don't have a test setup at the moment. I am running v4.9.02 (switched from legacy to main bios version) for more than 2 weeks now and I noticed a drop of more than 10% in the temp, should indicate something.

    This post is a bit old so maybe take a look here https://forum.netgate.com/topic/95148/pc-engines-apu2-experiences/218

    @epsense said in ExpressVPN not working with 2.4.4-REALEASE-p1, help! see config:

    @vincepro, hello have you fix your problems yet setup ExpressVPN on pfsense? I’m new on pfsense myself, but I finally got my ExpressVPN to work on pfsense. Took me a couple days, but it’s up and running. I did try to write a how-to but netgate would not let me post stating its spam:(

    They don't "say" it's spam, but the spamfilter of the forums detect it that way, most possibly because it has links/URLs in it, that cause it. Try using code blocks etc. for better visibility anyway. Otherwise after getting a few πŸ‘ the restrictions are lowered so less likely to tagged spam. Or send your "howto" to one of the mods to post, there are always ways to do things :)

    If both client and server are on the LAN, the firewall has nothing to do with it. They connect directly to each other.

    @poojashukla10 said in Installing Pfsense on Centos 7 and Ubuntu:

    Is it possible I can install Pfsense in redhat virtualization manager? I can see I can create freebsd virtual machine, but it doesn't mean freebsd os comes with Pfsense?

    pfSense is an OS itself. It is FreeBSD customized and optimized to be a firewall. Simply set the virtual machine's OS parameter to FreeBSD 11 (or whatever value is available) and then proceed to install a pfSense image. Again, pfSense is an OS. You don't install it on top of any other operating system.

    Check the forum. This happens a lot. Most often, it's a some sort of DNS time out issue.
    For example : if you list installed packages on GUI Dashboard, the GUI will refresh that list when showing the dashboard. A DNS request goes out for the 'package server', and can't reach it.
    Same thing for the pfSense version check.

    What happens when you go directly to another page, like https://pfsense.yourlan.tld/status_services.php instead of the Dashboard (the default home page).

  • Using Cloud Provider IP with my Home LAN through Site-to-Site VPN

    @jpcyrenne2 said in Using Cloud Provider IP with my Home LAN through Site-to-Site VPN:

    Same with a simple ping. I don't get trafic to the 2nd IP, but OK with main firewall IP.

    If you ping the second IP from an external source and check the tcpdump / packet capture on the cloud pfsense - is there any incoming package to the secondary IP visible? If not stop right there and check back with your provider, because then you've got a routing/IP issue :)

    @rico said in Will Supermicro 5019A-FTN4 work with PfSense:

    You can't just take any Supermicro box with pfSense CE image and compare it to the XG-7100 saying it is the same platform as this image (pfSense-netgate-memstick-XG-7100-2.4.4-RELEASE-p2-amd64.img.gz) is highly adjusted to this architecture AFAIK.

    I didn't write that anywhere. I was pointing out, that Netgate itself uses the SOC without problems and has been before it was introduced officially with 2.4.4 and the step up of the FreeBSD base. So as Steve wrote it should simply work now. I wasn't telling anyone to use a netgate / ADI image on other hardware, that would be stupid.

    Besides that, if one uses almost identical hardware to the 5100 or 7100 there shouldn't be much surprises in hardware. That's all :)
