@nick-loenders If you want this for lab/home and have free time and like to tinker, you can probably make your own by using a rectangle PVC pipe piece. Some PVC glue, you can have a good-guy employee even cut it for you at the hardware store.

@SteveITS Wow! They already sent me the software. I wish I had posted here 2 days ago. Thanks so much for your help!!!

@stephenw10 Ok, now I understood and can put this pin on it for later improvement. Thank you very much for your kind help!

@tgl said in packages missing on new 4200: ... I don't know what "bootstrapping clock" is unless it's trying to run ntpdate. Digging in the rc scripts shows that it's doing this: /usr/bin/timeout -k 45 30 /usr/local/sbin/ntpd -g -q -c /dev/null {$ntp_boot_time_servers} I didn't research that ntpd call in detail, but I suppose it's morally equivalent to ntpdate, and would probably complete pretty quickly if it had connectivity to the mentioned servers. So that mystery is explained.

You should see upgrade_log.latest.txt after an upgrade has run. Can you mount the cf dataset manually as shown here?: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/single-user-mode.html#re-mount-zfs-volumes-as-read-write

I don't think a drive for the 4200 has been decided on yet. I've tested it with the drive we use in the 6100-max and 8200 which reports as: Geom name: nda0 Providers: 1. Name: nda0 Mediasize: 120034123776 (112G) Sectorsize: 512 Mode: r2w2e4 descr: M.2 (P80) 3TE6 lunid: 010000000000000000000036ba0299d8 ident: YCA12203170170456 rotationrate: 0 fwsectors: 0 fwheads: 0

@thiagopinski27 said in assignment new ethernet: tg-3468 Can we see it's output in pciconf -lv ? That looks like a Realtek 1G NIC though so I'd expect it to be supported by default.

Yup the ports are separated by default in the 1100. You should only need to enable DHCP on OPT and add firewall rules.

Ok thank you, I was hoping for fix. But off to ticket land I go! Have a good day!

@stephenw10 I've set a wrong gateway on ipcam. Change it with the ip of netgate finally solved the problem Thanks Andrea

@stephenw10 I tried removing the CMOS battery, and the SSD and I tried plugging in USB with Pfsense Image but still no change And I when I contacted the retailer in December 2023 when my eMMc crashed he told me that I had lost my warranty shy of 3months. Its so strange that the factory warranty is only 1year, that little details got lost on me before I purchased the device.

Hmm, perhaps that specific screen resolution tries to use the desktop format.

The SFP port on the 2100 can only run at 1G so requires a module that can support that. There is little point using a 10G module like that even if it is a dual speed device. Steve

@vividIT said in Issue with Updating XG7100 to 22.05: I checked the "Netgate Coreboot Upgrade" section and I do see an update is available (the current version is: 01.00.00.10 whereas the updated version is 01.00.00.11). Ah then you will need to upgrade at least the package before updating Coreboot. The current version is: 01.00.00.20 However there is an issue with updating it from 23.09.1. I suggest installing 23.05.1, upgrading the Coreboot version from the included package, then upgrading to 23.09.1 from there. Open a ticket with us to get the image(s) and discuss further: https://www.netgate.com/tac-support-request

TAC Lite is for the life of the appliance. Pro or Ent are only for the subscription period.

The fastest way back is probably to reinstall 23.09.1 clean if you have a config backup. You should be able to login at the amnesiac prompt though. admin/pfsense or root/pfsense should work if it's unable to find any login config. Also try admin/root. Otherwise root/<your_password> should work if it can still see that config. Steve

Thanks Stephenw10 & Jarhead for taking time to respond to my post. My issue is resolved now. All I wanted to do was to configure the Netgate 2100. So, the router was not connected on the WAN side. Just to my laptop on the LAN side. It turned out the culprit was my ethernet cable. Ever since the dial up modem era, I have been setting up my home LAN. I had never experienced a bad ethernet cable!! The one I was using now is a new one & fresh out of the box. I never suspected that this cable was the culprit.

What do you see on the serial console? https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-2100/connect-to-console.html If it's booting as far as just one LED flashing blue it is mostly booting correctly. How did you use the reset button? https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-2100/factory-reset.html Steve

@stephenw10 said in Netgate hardware for latest Verizon ONTs?: Not an Nbase-T port, so a 2.5G link will not work there? Right, as far as I can tell from the available info it will do 1G or 10G and nothing in between. We have seen some SFP/RJ-45 modules that do work but we can't guaranty that because the C3K SoC does not claim to support them. Got it. Thanks for the clarification.

@John_McNoob said in NetGate 2100 Vlans: Now my ruls look like this Action = pass - Interface = GuestNetworks - Address Family= IPv4 - Protocol = TCP/UDP - Source = GuestNetwork subnets - Destination = GuestNetwork address - Destination Port Range DNS(53) / DNS(53) Action = pass - Interface = GuestNetworks - Address Family= IPv4 - Protocol = Any - Source = GuestNetwork subnets - Destination = Invirt match = Address or Alias = Alias-name Yes, that's fine. Think, I messed some "inverts" up...
