BIOS => disable sound capabilities ?

@stephenw10 Sounds like it should be fine to meet my 200 Mbps internet. I am trying pfSense on a spare computer I had. If it works I might just buy the SG-3100. Thanks!

Yes I would also say you should be looking at the SG-3100.

That UDP number seems wild.... like it lost almost all the traffic. How did you test that?

That is a good, stackable, PoE, gigabit switch.

Beware that I believe the fact that it is PoE means it is not fanless.

The ICX6430-24 (non-PoE) is fanless.

You also want to confirm if it is a 6430 or a 6450. The item description says 6430 - the description says 6450 which is a base layer 3 switch. The 6430 is not.

ow, used sg-3100 as client of the iperf
and the history is different now:

Client connecting to 192.168.255.250, TCP port 5001
TCP window size: 64.2 KByte (default)

[ 3] local 192.168.255.249 port 48963 connected with 192.168.255.250 port 5001
[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.06 GBytes 912 Mbits/sec

Thanks very much guys

@chrismacmahon Done. thx.

If you separate out one of the switched ports using a VLAN there is an option there to set a switch port for that vlan interface to monitor. That way is will show as 'down' to the os if the port is unplugged. Otherwise the VLAN will always show as up because the internal link to the switch cannot go down.

@fernandopf said in SG-3100 restart looping:

/sbin/fsck -y /

How many times did you run that? You need to run it at least 3 times, more won't hurt.

@dibun
Sometimes I really question myself why I write all this (and even post pictures). Didn't you read it, did not understand what I wrote or is it just the greed to get something for free?

@Derelict,

I confirmed that after installing and configuring the M.2 drive I can actually switch back and forth between the two configurations simply by setting the "Hard Disk Drive BBS Priority" order in the BIOS setup under the "Boot" tab.

Thanks again. ☺

@grimson nice

I'm not aware of a BIOS update for that firewall. If there were anything it might be a cpu microcode update for meltdown/spectre but we update that at boot anyway.

SIP is just UDP (usually). Your question is better-aimed at your SIP equipment/services and whether they are tolerant of NAT.

There is no SIP ALG in pfSense other than one small proxy daemon that is used for one use case that is pretty rare these days.

If you have never used the ticket system before just create a new account, use the 'sign up' button at the bottom of the right column there.

Thanks, I was using my Netgate account as ID
Ticket submitted

Yes, please start a new thread there.

My temp is around 63°C SG-3100
49°C XG-7100

Not exactly, the 'switch'ing device in the middle in our case is SVL and they (and all vlans) are controlled by another entity. I'd have to get some FID entries in there, but it'll just be easier to stick with devices with separate NICs (or the ability to mac spoof).

@jegr said in SG-5100 open vpn speeds:

Nope, I was referring to the measurements from the Netgate Blog:
https://www.netgate.com/blog/sg-5100-desktop-available-for-pre-order.html
it was measured with pf (Package Filter - filtering) enabled and disabled.

We only took measures with pf enabled as we run the device as full firewall and not routing only. So just as a side note should if the question comes up if something was disabled that could have lessen the performance impact.

OK got it. Quite a powerful box then. Just a shame its AUD$1400 in my country and makes it unviable to purchase :(

I did not. I failed to see that part of the process.

It is installed, laptop rebooted, and I have a serial console. Thank you.

Sorry for the noise. :/

That did the trick. Thanks!
