I'm pretty sure I tested that at one time but it's not officially supported, as shown.

Generally using J10 is expected for an SSD because J11 is wired to the SIM card slot so must be used if you want to add a modem. But both slots do work.

The docs have been updated to remove that in correct data. m2dev should always be 1.

Getting off CGNAT solved the issue, connection is solid now.

@McDing Ran into this myself just now, on a 4860. Per the referenced thread it will be fixed in 23.09.

For posterity the loader.conf.local can be created at the end of the install. Go to a shell prompt instead of rebooting, and create file /mnt/boot/loader.conf.local containing:

hint.ichsmb.0.disabled=1

@SteveITS Yep. If it's a 64bit platform that we still provide software for, it will do ZFS just fine.

@stephenw10 that was the first thing we did. So yeah I'll go ahead and create a ticket.

I dedicate a PC to each NetGate and Teamviewer in to that. That PC is connected to the NetGate both on the LAN and with a serial connection. Works very well. Will probably add UniFi plugs on a different WiFi network as well.

If you have the space to do it then mounting it vertically will probably cool better. However those devices were tested at full load in ambient temperatures far higher than 30C in the normal horizontal position so either should be no problem.

Thanks all, I've installed NVMe in other servers before.

This isn't "other servers" so... be careful as you could really make the system unusable if you aren't careful.

@ryanrozich said in Can I install TNSR on Netgate 6100 (not Max) version:

its more geared to being an edge router rather

Correct. Some of us here (myself and @stephenw10) can't even run it on our edge because it doesn't support our ISPs connection (PPPoE).

@jimp said in 23.05.1:

I wouldn't bother with the config restore, just install the packages again. The config restore is a fairly harsh way of saving a handful of clicks.

It will work, but it's like swatting a fly with a cannon.

Ah okay, thank you. I assumed that package configuration (settings sections) would be reset to their defaults if packages are simply uninstalled and reinstalled, but if I understand you correctly the settings will be retained?
So let's say I uninstall Avahi, perform update and reinstall Avahi, will the system have remembered the Avahi settings such as which interfaces, repeat packet across subnets etc.?

Upgrading a package effectively uninstalls the old package and reinstalls the new version. Same as if you did it in two steps before/after a reboot.

By default package configurations are retained in the firewall config file and only the metadata about the package is altered (e.g. the info about the package files, menus, tabs, plugins).

There are a small number of packages which have an option to wipe their config on reinstall but that isn't their default behavior, you have to explicitly set them to clear the config.

It's not something I've measured but, yes, I would expect a few Watts in the SSD.

@stephenw10 said in Are PCH temps around 70C to 78C normal on a Netgate 1541?:

You'd have to reset the thermal sensors RRD data to start logging that if you just upgraded and are now seeing the PCH device.

That did the trick.

Thank you!

That was my first thought as well. When I took the fan off to move it over, I found out the second screw hole is missing. In the picture without the fan shroud, you can see one hole on the far right.... but that's it, the hole for the screw on the left side of the fan mount isn't present. I'm guessing Supermicro must have a different fan bracket that holds two fans. So, the next best thing was to add the cardboard.

@mrsunfire:
I've identified the source of this error. The original author of the section of code that performs remote notifications of newly added rules categories was apparently unaware that the PHP gettext() function has an input string limit of 4096 characters. In his defense, neither was I aware of that limit until some research clued me in 😊

I have a fix that will be coming with the next Suricata package update. I hope to have that posted in the next couple of days or so for the Netgate team to review and approve.

Here's a better patch from @jimp. This is now in new snapshots and will be in the next pfSense release.

Hmm, definitely rebooting then. And not logging any cause. No crash log isn't a good sign.

Really only a log from the serial console output might show anything there.

If you look through the threads here there are some showing modules others have tested.

@Stefanix said in 23.05@2100 on eMMC or SSD?:

Can this still be an issue or will the installation routine take care of this?

It can cause an issue if you end up with multiple zfs pools with the same name.

However you don't need to worry about that when installing to the SSD in the 2100 because the installer erases the eMMC drive during the install.

The only time you might is if you later decided to install the eMMC when the SSD was still present. But that's a far more unusual situation.
