There have never been CE images for any ARM platform and there are no plans to do so. Nothing has changed there. However you could upgrade your VMs to Plus if you want them to all be running the same version. There's no issue with running a mix of CE and Plus installs though. It could be argued that the differences between ARM and x86 are larger than those between Plus and CE so it may not make much difference in that respect. Steve

Simply rebooting is often what shows up some long standing problem. It's why we always recommend rebooting before running an upgrade. Many firewalls only ever get rebooted at upgrade but that's when you're most likely to see a hardware failure and if you don't test that it looks like a problem with the upgrade. Steve

@stephenw10 Thanks a lot, everything is up and running on latest version

an additional question to this post: does anybody know what the definition of "small", "medium" and "large" business is? in all recommendations from netgate they define it in this scale but I was not able to find a hint where they explaine what they think that small, medium and large is?

Mmm, that should have been clear when we issued the RMA. Please let me know if you still have questions or if we have a hole in our process that needs attention. Steve

Mmm, as far as I know this is the first report of it we've seen. The 3100 has a switch but it doesn't use a lagg or vlans by default. Only the 7100 does that. Steve

No, shouldn't be if it's set to the 'Latest stable' branch in System > Update. You can turn it off by running: pfSense-led.sh update 0 Steve

Yeah, it still checks against available kernel memory: https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/master/src/usr/local/www/system_advanced_misc.php#L356 That could probably be removed with tmpfs there but it's only a significant restriction on arm32 and limiting ram disk size there is not terrible anyway. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13508 Steve

Nice recovery! The ECL should work in a VM if it sees a mounted USB drive (daX). We have seen issues on faster machines, or slow USB drives, where it fails to mount before the ECL runs. I could imagine you might be hitting that in a VM. Steve

@creationguy Temps are what i have as well. Mine was in an open rack in an open basement and i would get around 53. I have the 6100 and the temps are the exact same.

That's the maximum forwarding performance across all interfaces combined. That's also without filtering which is the biggest overhead you will hit there. 2Gbps is low though. I'd expect to see 3-4Gbps at least. There are a lot of variables there however. I didn't have a chance to test the 10G port directly yet. I do have a new workstation that can test at those speeds far more easily so I should be able to get some numbers soon. Steve

@stephenw10 Netgate 4100 it is then !

@stephenw10 Thank you!

Yes, that's it attaching normally.

Hi All, Thank you all for your inputs. I do not really think an issue with the negate device. There are just many factor affect the speed/throughput. I am going to investigate further on each of the components in the connection. Thanks again for the inputs to point me to the direction to investigate further. Best Regards

The older eMMC type cannot bye read by the utility if that's what you're asking. There is no way to allow it. Steve

A follow-up: This is a case of outdated information that has been addressed. If you find this forum and think the drivers aren't compatible please try another USB cable. If you really want to get in the weeds you can dig out a multi-meter to verify your Mini-USB cable has all 4 wires and connections made, as well as the shield (the metal on both ends of the cable should register continuity on your multi-meter as well). Of course testing those ends is a royal pain so I would just plan on checking other cables. Having a half-dozen mini-USB and microUSB cables lying around is a great thing because you never know when you might need one for something, or two or three somethings at the same time.

Ok thank you again for the help

Thanks so much for your suggestion Steve! I submitted a ticket per your direction.
