ok got it and thank you for your reply.
No VLANs so Im good.
Thanks for making this easy

After another reset I was able to finally set up the device. Indeed it did seem to have some configuration problem with DHCP. But its working now!

We need actual port numbers of some sort in pfSense at least because the order is not what might be expected given the NIC naming.

It's very unlikely we would change it on something that has been released but all input is welcome for future products.

I have a 6100 in my lab and it definitely supports VLANs just fine, I have a ton of them in my setup, so nothing to worry about there.

OK just to be clear you mean the 10G SFP ports (ix0 and ix1)?

What are they linked as?

Does the DHCP service actually stop? Are there errors logged?

@netboy Maybe netgate can "disable" or not show the "thermal sensor" widget for netgate 2100 - why show something which is not applicable to the hardware....

Quite possible that your terminal program isn't actually sending F2 when you press F2.

If you're using something like PuTTY, make sure that under settings Terminal > Keyboard you set the function keys to Xterm R6. Other terminal applications may have similar settings. If that particular setting doesn't work, try another one, or try a different application to access the console.

You might also be able to plug in a USB keyboard and press F2 on that.

Mmm, be really nice to have one that is supported by NUT.

Hi Ryan, I just took delivery of one of the first dutch SG-2100 128GB units. It's purring along at < 3% user util and so far no issues.

Thanks,

@stephenw10

Got it working. Was able to find this little USB C docking station in the corner that had an RJ45. Thanks for all the help!

Ah, nice. That's a good result then. Yes they must be using some thing out of band for the IP phone, which is good. 👍

Ah, yes that would do it! 😉

Ok, great let me see what we can come up with....

@stephenw10 Thank you. I will do this early in the morning or over the weekend.

Hmm, the i350 NIC is kinda surprising but there are a number of NICs that present like that. The only NICs we can ensure will work are those we sell. So if you need 4 1G ports the AOC-SGP-i4 does work.

Steve

Nope, still unsure!

I have kinda given up. After talking to two people at Netgate TAC its confirmed that this router can NO do 10gbit, and not even close. If you are going to do anything real world that include the firewall, vlans etc. it will give you 2-3 git at MOST on a good day. The hardware is just not capable of anything else. This is the numbers Netgate is giving me, but most plausible the hardware caps out at around 1.5gbit if you are running from LAN to WAN with firewall and some packet analyzing on.

If you are not booting from eMMC the system never writes to it so it's never going to get anywhere near the ware limit. You should have no problems.
