    There are people here I have come to trust. I value their experience and their judgement. Taking their advice is sometimes not comforting or confirming. It's not like running off to your media bubble. The truth is they have, collectively, a few lifetimes of experience and the wisdom that comes from the scar tissue they have accumulated.

The fe80 addresses are link local. Every IPv6 capable device has one of those. The fec0 addresses are the deprecated site local addresses. I have no idea where they are coming from. Perhaps the MAC addresses will tell you.

    Yeah thats the PPPoE issue, I saw it in the fixed issues list for 2.5.0 and that its targeting that release so I assumed it wasnt in yet? Thats the exact same behavior im seeing on 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1, if I make a change to any interface PPPoE goes down and theres no way to recover (reliably) without a reboot. I am also doing PPPoE over vlan. The NAS is not configured to route traffic as far as I can tell, I didnt set that up or at least not intentionally. It used to use just the gigabit ethernet connection but I got a 10gig card for it a few months ago and set that up. Rather than remove the old networking config I just unplugged the cable. I agree its probably bridge as a switch issue. Even after 2 hours combing through every config and every log, I still cant make heads or tails of it. The only thing I can think is that because Port 1 is the "main" bridge interface, maybe it didnt like having so many different machines connecting on it? Because aside from being the main interface, thats absolutely no difference in configs between it and Port 4 that I can see. The only difference physically is that Port 1 has a single, non-switched connection, where as Port 4 has 10 different machines across 2 switches on it. At some point I will get a 10gbe sfp+ capable switch so I can have just one each WAN/LAN interface in pfsense and really simplify the config, but theyre just too expensive to justify right now when this config works, at least when im not breaking it by being dumb :)

    @kpa said in User Password Maximum Length/accepted characters?: I wonder what are you trying to accomplish with such long passwords  ::) Password length is irrelevant as the hash length should remain the same. In fact, there could be an infinite number of passwords that return the same hash. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to find all those passwords.

    Yup I initially assumed this was spam but doesn't appear to be. And, yes, there are many good options here that don't require installing nano. However it is in our repo so it can be installed using pkg install nano. Steve

    @AKEGEC do you have a content extension that works with 7.3.3 CE version? I have installed the Netgate pfSense DSM but I am experiencing problems while installing Polo's pfSense content extension.

    Clients may not need a certificate if it's an auth-only setup. The client GUI can't know what the server expects, the user has to configure it properly. There is only so much foot-shooting the GUI can prevent.

    I assume that was not during a test since it shows 100% idle on all CPU cores. Can we see the loaded output during a test? Steve

    Yes you can keep the other settings in place. That way if you have clients that are not using pfSense, for DNS for whatever reason, they will still be able to hit the servers using the url. Steve
