    Turns out I just wasn't aware! We do have those for the 8300 when it's sold with TNSR. So if you have some special use case I'd call our sales guys to discuss.

    @stretch1931 said in Useful resources for new appliance owners: lights and what they mean They do: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-6100/io-ports.html#led-patterns also https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-6100/factory-reset.html On the 6100 it does do a config reset, vs some models it's just a hardware reset/boot. Frustration understood. :) I suggest creating a new thread per issue so it's easier for people to notice. The forum is pretty active with several dev/admin/support folks from Netgate also, especially in this Netgate hardware forum.

    You might try a different PSU. If that has a fault it could have killed that diode and be cause issues during high load.

    @CrKlom3 I do not recall attempting to boot a device from USB with both the eMMc and NVMe drives removed.

    Regarding TAC, every Netgate appliances comes with some basic support which would cover an upgrade issue like this.

    So I gave it a try. Enabled Speedstep, C states and ASPM in bios. Also enabled powerd and set it to adaptive. Idle consumption is now at 10.5w, so very pleased with that! Also no performance drops and still able to max out my 1/1gb PPPoE connection! Now I have to wait for a couple of days to check if the device keeps running stable! :)

    @supriya It actually comes with a thin heatsink stickied on one side, I think it's copper. I actually peeled it off initially because I was going to add a heatsink and realized that what the sticker was. [image: 1761890431036-img_0855-resized.jpeg]

    Will future appliances have switched or unswitched ports?

    @stephenw10 close.. the 4 2.5 are nice - but full multigig would be better, 1/2.5/5/10 ;) If my 4860 gave up the ghost today, that is what I would replace it with for sure.. Or how about just sfp+ interfaces where I could put in anything I wanted be it 1/2.5/5/10.. That could work too. With just say a gig copper management interface, hey the management interface could just be 10/100 even ;)

    Yes, you can do that. The labeling there is just a label, the ports can be used for any type of interface.

    @rduarteoliveira Have a look here for a slightly different approach to get the CPU core temperatures via SNMP that works with other CPU core counts as well.

    I wasn't personally involved in that, I'll see what I get for you. But, yes, almost certainly CPU limited for any pf or VPN testing.

    Yup that. The 7100 has some specific config complications because of the internal switch. But TAC can convert if for you so it will import into the 4200 directly.

    Yes, if you have RAM disks enabled (not default) then you will lose any logs that have not been backed up if the unit spontaneously reboots. If it loses power for example.

    @EG said in Netgate SG-4860 Fan Replacement: @d83 I just had to do this, the FOXCONN 5010 PVA050C12Q was a direct replacement. $4.92 on Ebay. Supposedly rated for Service life: 50000 hours, but I'll have to get back to you on that. Thanks, I expect an update in 5.7 years! Lol

    It pretty much has to be reporting incorrectly there since that's what the gui uses but it would be good to confirm.
