@jgq85 said in "Add Tag" button missing on Interfaces > Switches > VLANs?: It was configured that way before it was shipped by a provider. No freaking clue why anyone would set it up like that ;)

@jdarmstrong It's a syslog Priority value (facility+severity). See RFC 5424.

@leoescarpellin Stop thinking of IPSec vs OpenVPN. Both are just methods to provide an IP connection between 2 points. As such, when the VPNs are up, it's just a matter of routing and rules as to whether traffic can pass between them, just like any other IP connection. Of course, you'll have to ensure network addresses don't collide (the NAT curse strikes again).

@newberger It could be corrupted partition or boot method error. Just fresh install pfsense. A lot user upgraded to 2.5.1 pfsense without rebooting the device first.

@JKnott Sorry pfsense is on the same LAN. I built the whole lab on google cloud to test pfsense api.

@gertjan it says Filesystems are clean, continuing... i have used zfs, so i dont know if still applies? thanks p.s. this is unrelated to the first crashes, those were related to the igb driver i think they are resolved now, i just used the same thread

By selecting the check-box in front of the rule, and click dragging. As usual. Just tested it : works : [image: 1618815731829-64f71557-a257-4efd-a563-08ec4509848b-image.png] Don't know if it was "2.5.0" as it is old by now, but I guess : you would have seen others mentioning your question. The usual solutions will help your : a) Use another browser. b) Hit Ctrl-F5. as this kind of functionality is being handled by your browser. Open the web dev windows of your browser and check if it hasn't troubles loading any javascript - or other files. I'm running the latest - not 2.5.0 : [image: 1618815798587-534166b0-1464-42a0-a261-5ac75f2c229e-image.png]

@joshhboss Most of these questions can be checked, just look at the system in place right now ;) As networks like "10k" don't fall out of the sky, are not created from scratch today. Or are you really implementing a "hotspot Wifi network" on a "new aero port" or very big school or company, with nothing in place at the moment ? You probably want to double the system to make a HA set-up,and both really to be identical from a hardware perspective. Use you current system as a test-bed for updates and spare. The system you propose shouldn't be the first bottleneck you'll find ;)

@stephenw10 I will try it if it happens again. Last night I found that when I upgraded firmware on the 5548p switch the LAG which connects it to my 2428 switch was no longer a LAG. I redesignated those ports and reloaded the router. Maybe there was a network loop? I will know more of it happens again as I won't need the internet back up immediately and can investigate more.

pfSense also can't check for updates for system or packages. Internet still functions.

@jknott said in Pfsense with rj45 to USB: @nollipfsense said in Pfsense with rj45 to USB: If I were you, I would get a managed switch to use VLAN with that tiny one Ethernet port. The problem with that is it effectively limits him to 500 Mb and he's got a 900 Mb connection. When you use a VLAN over a single port, a packet has to pass through the same port twice, so a Gb port effectively becomes 500 Mb. I see ... good to know. Seems that OP might need to get the Lenovo SFF.

Thanks very much ! Based on the thread, my upgrade went perfectly. I'm up and running with no downtime at all. Keith

Six year old post but your research saved me tons of time. I've been scratching my head for days, contacting both Netgate and several syslog server software vendors to see why their viewer won't show messages actually showing up in Wireshark just fine. I got nothing until I found a simple workaround, just changing the listening port of the syslog server and making the device send to that port instead.

@thewismit could this be it? https://forum.netgate.com/topic/144636/sg-1100-intermittent-reboots

I'm always setting my ACPI power state on to "Power on" That way i'm sure my Fwall is starting after an AC (mains) failure Edit: You will like to try that by "pulling the AC or 12v plug" .... If the disk don't survive (UFS) , you i''l also know why ZFS is preferred ... /Bingo

An update to this - there has been no change/improvement to this with 2.5.0 nor 2.5.1.

@tgimagine Make sure no one has plugged the same cable into 2 ports on the switch or under a desk, try unplugging about half your computers/printers and see if the problem remains. If yes, plug the first half back in and unplug the second. APs, too. Process of elimination. Also, on the off chance it is the SG, take it off the net. Maybe bad NIC out of box.
