    Yeah it's untested AFAIK. It's certainly not rated for a wide input voltage like that.

    That will work. Or just swap the link out for a cross-over cable.

    Yes, you can do that. Though I would first try a clean 23.01 install. The fact it won't factory default sounds more like it didn't complete the upgrade successfully. Steve

    @stephenw10 Thanks. That is exactly the behavior I'm seeing, just wanted to verify.

    @rcoleman-netgate I'd be exhausted, too. PHP 7.x -> PHP 8.x for an ancient PHP app is not a small job. And then FreeBSD 12.x -> FreeBSD 14 in the same swoop, with in-place upgrades where the install base is made up of eclectic hardware. It's a miracle most of my 2.7.0-dev and 23.01 Rel upgrades worked. For those that did not.... Enjoy Q2 2023 #nosleep

    The 6100 and 4100 use the i225-v Rev3 (B3) NIC chips which are not affected by that. I've never seen that sort of connection issue in any of the testing I've done.

    I think whatever went wrong with pfsense caused my ubiquity access points to crash which is why I couldn't see the SSID. Once I restored pf sense, and restarted my ubiquity devices, I could see the SSID again.

    @davidylau said in Netgate 1100 can no longer update nor install apps (again): @nguser6947 My EFI partition is 200M, so my system should be OK. Then you should be fine, lucky you. If you don't want to wait to install 23.01 you can reinstall from image, and restore your config, or check back in a couple weeks.

    It should still be a static IPv4 address. You always want the firewall to be a static IP so you can always access it even if the dhcp server goes down. The only interfaces you might want to be a dhcp client would be the actual WAN if it is a DHCP type.

    @aaronouthier said in How to use a managed switch with VLANs with SG-1100? basket random: @rcoleman-netgate I think I don’t completely understand how VLAN tagging works. In the photo above, I don’t understand what you did with the “Members” column. My managed switch has 5 VLANs, ports 2 and 6 are untagged in VLAN1, ports 7 & 8 are untagged in VLAN 5, the rest are untagged alone in separate VLANs, and each VLAN has port 1 tagged. I’m not clear how to interface with that in pfSense? It sounds pretty reasonable. I will try it now.

    This seems like a good time to try out my shiny new ZFS memory usage boilerplate message. 23.01 can appear to use more memory than expected if you are using ZFS for a few different reasons: ZFS ARC (Adaptive Replacement Cache) usage is reported differently, though the behavior is similar to older versions #14011. ZFS will give up this cache memory as needed but not always fast enough for certain workloads. To correct the memory reporting on graphs and the dashboard, install the System Patches package and then create an entry for 0d83ed084a987f3446a0cbdcf249fc5b8722726f to apply the fix. The first boot after upgrading the ARC usage will be high from all the disk activity during the upgrade. This will gradually lower, or a reboot will make it go back to "normal". FreeBSD default cron jobs are enabled when they shouldn't be #14016, and run at 3am causing RAM usage from ARC to jump overnight. To correct this, install the System Patches package and then create an entry for ff715efce5e6c65b3d49dc2da7e1bdc437ecbf12 to apply the fix. To set limits on ZFS ARC size to reduce the chance of contention for RAM, configure a tunable for vfs.zfs.arc.max to set a limit on how many bytes it can consume, e.g. 67108864 would set a 64MB limit. Also consider setting a "Free Target". Both are explained in detail on https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/hardware/tune-zfs.html. A reboot is required to fully activate the changes from these patches. The ZFS ARC limit will take effect immediately but the wired memory may not be immediately freed, so a reboot is helpful for that as well.

    @stephenw10 Hi Steve (this) Linux sees all as generic sdX as long as it's block storage so it doesn't matter how it is connected. To dive into would need a /dev/disk/by-path or such, which I did not last year. I installed the M.2 into another PC (with only an Infiniband card, so no nic at all); installed 21.05 Rescue on it, and on first boot after I put the M.2 into the SG2220 and after a few minutes the card asked for DHCP on my WAN port and reacted on 192.168.1.1/24 as expected on the LAN side. Problem fixed so far. Thanks for the HowTo help! Cheers Michael P.S.: I wonder what fails next on this box....

    @stephenw10 said in Migrating from SG-5100 to 4100: ... It also can be difficult if you have VLANs or other sub interface types. Editing the config directly can be an easier option. ... Steve Thanks for the response. Yes, I'm using three different hardware interfaces with a handful of VLANs. I'll probably open a ticket for help with the conversion. Thanks again!
