  I

  I made a few changes from my setup last year. I upgraded to a deeper rack with a few more rack units of space to accommodate a Dell Powerconnect 5524p and to hold my HPE Microserver g10 NAS. The primary goals for this upgrade were for 802.3af and 10gbe to several devices. ( I have a second switch that can be stacked with the first for an additional 2x sfp+ ports) I'm still using the Netgear CM600, Netgate 2440, and Rpi3 model B but the pi will be repurposed shortly after I virtualize FreePBX.

  @mikej47 said in SG-3100 LAGG: Is it possible to do a LACP LAGG on a SG-3100? I have seen conflicting information on the pfSense forums. Using WAN + OPT1, Yes, using pfSense LAGG. On the switch ports, No.

  @mke said in SG-4860 - throughput question: I was able to get something close to ideal like 960, 970. I doubt that. Even in perfect "lab" conditions, max thruput on 1Gbe Ethernet (without using jumbo frames) is ~941Mbps. You can read more on that here. I've never seen anything higher than that in my testing. The good news is I have been able to hit 940 very reliably when I run Ookla speedtest on a 1G fiber line w/ Netgate 4860 & now 5100.

  First thing to try is a different USB stick and/or a different USB port. The error suggests that it is unable to mount the installation media, so it's likely a problem with that. Might be some combination of that particular memstick+port that FreeBSD doesn't care for on that hardware.

  S

  I've recently purchased and configured from scratch my first pfSense box using the MBT-4220. It's been running well for about a week now and I'll have a few weeks further to evaluate it and tweak it. This MBT-4220 is a great replacement for a quite old FreeBSD system I've not upgraded in years. For home use this is more than adequate and meets my needs: DHCP pools and static mapping OpenSSH user shell OpenVPN connection for family mobile devices traffic mapping using ntopng *Queing *Squid/squidguard Many of these things I configured by hand in the past but now have everything in a nice little box. Wifi access is provided by a separate wifi router. I've read about replacing the fan with a heat sink so I'm investigating that as a possible upgrade. For home the cpu runs 4-10% depending on activity and ntopng. Load averages are about 0.24 with a video stream running. Temperature with the fan is about 38-40°C. Configuring OpenVPN for my family's phones and PCs is pretty simple. It's been good to add squidguard on the OpenVPN interfaces so I can filter out the trackers and ads (and other unwanted content).

  @mhab12 I think this might be it (can't reach the DNS servers). I swapped the 3.1 modem for a 3.0 modem I had used for a long time with no problems. So far the problem has ceased. I was actually hoping it would be the modem, but the behavior from pfSense is well uhm, a bug if you ask me. You're trying to work out a problem and pfSense just contributes to the problem. Well thanks all for replies. Yes, I could ping. Yes it was a rapid reply. I did not ssh into the box. Once the above appeared to solve the problem I did not want to go back to the old modem since it seems clear (for now) the problem is not with pf Sense. Regards, Barry

  I would look into using IPSEC instead of the OpenVPN client connection you are using, you will see a speed improvement. My unit's getting around 100Mbps when on AES-128-CBC (UDP), adding SHA1 auth drops me to ~80Mbps. Same link using IPSec (IKEv2, AES-128-GCM), I get around 150Mbps

  Aside from an older bug https://forum.netgate.com/topic/130980/suricata-not-limiting-log-sizes-by-default Suricata shouldn't use much disk space. I checked a client's SG-3100 and Disk Usage on the pfSense home page shows "24% of 7.0GiB."
