Yeah that's crazy and seems completely unnecessary. No such code should be required to create a pps driver should you go that route.

@kiokoman As mentioned above, on the SG-4860-1U that I have, there is no contact surface to clean - the eMMC is directly soldered to the PCB. Aside from trying to resolder it, there isn't much to do, and at that point it's too big a risk vs. the mSATA and ignoring kernel messages. I could probably change the config to avoid mounting da0 in the first place if it gets that frequent/irritating.

Hey thx KOM!

BlazeStar, thanks for the heads up. I’ll get our partner manager to update our listing. And, thx for the order. We will get it out tomorrow morning.

I wouldn't think so.. As long they both support the fiber type your going to use.

Yeah with the switch configured like that the OPT port is just a second switch interface on the LAN which is what you want.

The OPT interface becomes irrelevant you could disable it and unassign it.

In the Interfaces > LAN settings set the 'Switch port' field either to port 0 (always connected) or to not monitor a port.
It is monitoring the LAN port status so when you unplug it it marks the interface as down.

@Kleinmann I couldn’t get it to work with any cable so I opened a support ticket. They replaced my hardware at only the cost it took me to ship it to them in Texas.

I built a mini PC box a few years ago and have been very happy. It has 4GB and an SSD with some kind of Atom CPU(I think 4-core). It handles everything I have ever thrown at it and more. I recently bought an SG-1100 to use for another purpose and it's a far slower and the 1GB of RAM has limited some of the pfblockerNG configurations.

I do like the SG-1100. It's cheap and basic. No hardware config.

No. It will pass it but not generate it.

Yes, we do actually have an internal bug report open for this but since it doesn't really impact anything it's pretty low priority.

But it is recorded.

Login and open a support ticket to request access to the factory installer image:

pfSense-netgate-SG-1000-recover-2.4.4-RELEASE-p3-armv6.img.gz

pls do not be frightened there is no need to pay for the support to open a ticket and ask for the factory installer image

File System Check (fsck) fixed the issue.
We hand-edited the .XML and it imported and updated perfectly.
Now backed-up and happy customer. ☺
Thanks for your help!

They don't want people just signing up willy nilly for support accounts ;) heheeh

Until you see thr WAN switch port show a link you have no upstream connectivity. The wall jack you are testing may just be disconnected from what we are seeing right now.

I didn't look into eMMC inside my SG-3100. I'm not sure if it has level wearing or not.

But in general, if I only use less than 20% space and streams the log file to other place, I bet it can last for very long.

Let's do an experiment. We will see who will last longer 5 years from now.

Yes, you can assign only one not-tagged vlan on switch port. I suggest you need one non-tagged - default vlan, and all other vlans can be only tagged on same interface.

You were not able to recover the config during the install? It must have been a significantly damaged file system if so.

Steve

I concur it's a Safari thing, if you click on the tile you don't "Read Now" message.

It works fine in Firefox.

@RobC said in SG-3100 - normal running temperatures?:

Another vendor put in a store music system and slid their amplifier in under our SG-3100. Effectively putting us on a hot plate.

That's just wonderful.

No harm since you repaired the file system. These little Netgate appliances are still PCs at heart, so you have to shutdown them down gracefully even though they do sort of resemble a network switch. They are actively writing to the disk even if it is solid-state, unlike say a typical firmware-based switch which just reads from a ROM of some type.
