    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.

    @chpalmer Yes, great idea. The 4U version of the DeskPi RackMate this is mounted on actually comes with a metal shelf for things like a cable or DSL modem. [image: DP-0047-06-06.jpg?v=1756792674]

    @pdalmao Is this a brand new FSP? You can use any high-quality 12V 5-10A power supply (a “brick” type), such as MeanWell. You just need to solder, make, or buy an appropriate adapter. [image: 1768389193936-1baaf983-5844-437b-a345-453656936a71-17683891359631139037712982685383.jpg]

    Hmm 50X error like that is almost always some PHP issue. Like PHP has stopped or all available PHP threads are used. There should be something logged when it starts happening though. Something beyond those logs which also just show the PHP is nor responding as expected.

    @netboy said in Migrating from Netgate 2100 to 4200: Advice on Port Mapping & Integrated Switch Removal: should I bother with a software bridge to keep the "two ports per network" behavior of my 2100? Not unless you really need it, I agree. The 4200 ports are not a switch and using a real switch is better in almost every way.

    @w0w different technology and more than twice the difference in listed performance. That’s not something I would attribute to testing methodology with out real data suggesting otherwise. Imo a much more likely explanation is Netgate were not focusing on SSD wear as a major limit to device reliability and brand reputation at that time. They are now and I would be surprised if they made the same decision in the future.

    @luckman212 The Silicom Valencia platform which the SG4200 is based does have options for an 8 core C1130 and SFP+ ports. I would not be surprised if they went that route instead kind of like they did with the SG6100/8200 route where they used the same Silicom Cordoba platform/chassis. Also a problem with the x7400 series is max of 9 PCIE lanes vs 20 in the C11XX granted it would be sufficient for 2 SFP+ and 4x 2.5Gbe ports, 2 more 10 Gbe RJ45 ports would probably not be possible with that CPU.

    @JonathanReif said in Netgate sg-1100: So far it’s amazing .... Don't forget to take in account the annual power tax. Maybe you are extremely lucky and the tax percentage is 0,1 $/€ per KwH. My 4100 (consumes about 25 Wh) => 22 €/$ a year. Your 'dell' : 100 Wh ? (probably somewhat more) => 88 €/$ a year. The thing is, 0,1 $/€ is a 'before 2020 price'; so the difference will be bigger. 6500 i5 tossed in 1 tb NVME and 48ram ... 48 Gbytes of RAM ? True, a power house.

    Mmm, if you plug it in after boot what is shown in the logs? And, yes, where does it fail in the boot?

    Check the MTU for the WAN Interface, not all ISPs are pk with 1500 and need a lower value.

    It would only be there if it was actually an SA which is unlikely for a BIOS update. I have the netgate blog page added to the RSS dashboard widget to see updates there.

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