@dobby_ said in Installed Packages Notification - pfSense+: could be a nice place to test something out. Or? Realtime on telegram or eMail report daily or weekly would also there available. Read again this part.

@mdhurrtn said in Plex server running, but cannot find on windows 10 pro internal network: Just no IP addresses. If they had no ip address they wouldn't work, by default pfsense defaults to 192.168.1.1 and hands out IPs via dhcp on the 192.168.1 network. Look in the status dhcp leases for what your devices IPs are, or look on the devices themselves for what their IPs are.

Then try to pin down exactly what is failing when it happens. Is it a DNS probem? Is it a routing problem? Is traffic being blocked? Steve

Ah, yes the Squid package has probably not yet been adapted to php 8.1. I would expect it to throw errors like that until it's updated.

MRTG on RaspBerry PI

@hansve That error is because something was run on Diagnostics > Command prompt that exceeded the memory allocated to render a page in php. Without knowing what was run it's pretty much impossible to diagnose further.

Appreciate all if the info!! Will

@jessicaseuk Wished you had format as legacy with GPT, though.

@stephenw10 Yeah, I never saw an ARP query initiated by the ISP over several hours of capturing all ARP traffic on the WAN port.

@mrjoli021 are these IPv6 addresses? Maybe you just need a bigger screen? ;) I have 4 columns of widgets, the firewall widget is in the far right column, and not seeing this, even with 5 digit ports. [image: 1664032589371-widget.jpg] So you maybe have texted zoomed in your browser? If I make my browser window smaller, I take it this sort of what your seeing? [image: 1664033109158-browser.jpg]

Some of the older 'easy smart' switches failed to handle VLANs correctly. You could not remove ports from VLAN1 meaning broadcasts leaked between VLANs. I have one of those. I also have a newer, much more expensive, TP-Link switch and it works great, no complaints. I'm not aware of any particular issues with their current low end switches either.

Set the LAN interface to use a different subnet. 192.168.100.1/24 would work fine.

@onepiece said in Creating VLANs and subnets (and SSIDs) using pfSense: Do most modern APs allow multiple SSID transmissions using separate subnets simultaneously? Proper APs usually do, but using a router as an AP won't. Just read the specs to see what an AP can do. I have a Unifi AC-Lite AP, which supports multiple SSIDs and VLANs, as did a TP-Link AP I used before. BTW, some people here like the Unifi APs.

@Gertjan @stephenw10 Thanks for the pointer. Filer does seem to at least backup the file. It's Base64 encoded but it is in the backup file. I will try it and see what happens.

Sorry for the late reply. Didn't want to jump the gun. New drive did fix the issue. I appreciate all the help you guys provided!

As long as you manged to resist smashing something.

yeah, I found this thread yesterday on forum.level1techs.com and switched it off, as you said, only to see no difference. "PPP is weird if you’re used to LAN and ethernet addressing. There’s only a single IP on the other side, and peers are originally meant to be symmetrical and not really ask for IPs using DHCP - instead, they’d just announce what IPs they have using IPCP and expect the other side to ack. Then the whole ip address discovery thing was bolted on, so you as a peer can say, “I have 0.0.0.0”, and ISP can say “no you don’t, you have 2.64.x.x”. ISP peer can still say “I have 10.64.64.0” and you’d typically use that as a gateway. In your routing tables, you’d have a directly attached 10.64.64.0/32 route via ppp0 as well as a 0.0.0.0/0 (default gateway) route via 10.64.64.0/32 . [well something along those lines anyway … ppp itself is dying … but you might end up having /32 on ethernet interfaces these days instead] My PPP log says the same now. Thanks and best regards, Mike

@sticilface I only do NAT in OpenWRT for those pVPNs, between pfSense and OpenWRT it is routed.

If you have dhcpv6 enabled on WAN the dhcpv6 server on LAN will use the prefix it pulls. Those are coupled. But also should be independent of the v4 service.
