To 2.5.0 or not ? that is the question :)
-
- V2.4.5 configuration is not compatible with v2.5.0.
- Clean install using ZFS on two memorysticks reports GENOM error on da0. Also present on two new sticks. gpart recover da0 reports ok, but error returns after each reboot. Fsck doesn't help either.
- Reporting some outgoing errors on VLAN tagged interfaces only. Using Quad Intel network card, can't be sure of others. Seems it has something to do with FreeBSD 12.2, the Intel driver, IPv6 and msi-x. Further research needed.
- NUT has problems starting the ups-driver when rebooting. Manual restart of the service makes it start.
None of these issues were present in v2.4.5, except for NUT.
Adding "net.inet6.ip6.auto_linklocal=0" to System Tunables, reduced the number of errors on tagged interfaces. I do not use IPv6. Others using FreeBSD 12.2 experiences the same issue: https://github.com/opnsense/src/issues/74
I think I was too quick to install v2.5.0 on my main firewall. Should have waited.
-
Installed fresh from 2.5 image.
restored 2.4.5p1 .xml.
Everything works again, EXCEPT LAN Traffic Graph.Bummer, something in my .xml config?
I can't seem to find the reason...@buggz said in To 2.5.0 or not ? that is the question :):
Hmm, well, cleared the error, but still no traffic for LAN shown on the Traffic Graph...
-
What is your LAN interface? Anything special?

In what way? You can import a 2.4.5 config into 2.5.

@stephenw10
No special LAN settings that I know of.
LAN is set to IPV4 ONLY.
IPV6 is turned OFF on BOTH the WAN and LAN.
WAN Traffic Graph works good. -
Hmm, the only place I have seen that is odd interface types, like wireguard, where there is a known issue.
-
@stephenw10 Didn't work here. Importing the whole config resulted in no internet, GUI or SSH access. Only pinging the firewall worked.
-
Hmm, must be something specific in your config then. In general that should always be possible.

WAN Traffic Graph works good.POOF, and now on reboot, the WAN interface is out, not updating.
Hard to believe I am the only one with this problem...

This post is deleted! -
What is your WAN type?
How is it failing? The actual link goes down? Not pulling an IP?

@stephenw10
EVERYTHING, EXCEPT the LAN Traffic Monitor works.
I changed the time on my Win10 box, it has the Chrome interface to the pfSense box, and the WAN Traffic Monitor recovered, now works. That was strange.
LAN Traffic Monitor is still NOT working.
Though, worked great in the previous release.
Tried Firefox, still no go. -
Like the traffic graphs? Can we see a screenshot?
We have seen problems there before with a bad timezone.

Ah, yes sorry I conflated some topics there
Hmm, do you see the interface stats incrementing for LAN? What driver is it?
Steve
-
@stephenw10
Yes, Interface Statistics is updating.Intel OEM I350-T4
dmesg shows it is using:
igb0: <Intel(R) PRO/1000 PCI-Express Network Driver> mem 0xf7b00000-0xf7bfffff,0xf7c0c000-0xf7c0ffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci2Hmm, I can't remember what driver the former release used...

@buggz I'm facing issues using VLAN's with v2.5.0, where all VLAN tagged interfaces reports some output errors. Seems it has something to do with the 'igb' driver and IPv6. It doesn't affect the performance in any noticeable way, but it wasn't present in v2.4.5. After some research, it seems to do with the Intel 'igb' driver bundled with FreeBSD 12.2-STABLE. Following is a link to others facing the same problem:

I'm not experiencing problems with the traffic graphs, but maybe this got something to do with it. Hope this gets fixed in the next release.
-
Hmm, that doesn't seem to be generally the case. I have a whole bunch of boxes with igb NICs and VLANs and haven't noticed anything . Of course now I'm going to go digging....
But that seems unlikely to be related to this graphing issue.

Wow, and now LAN Traffic Graph magically works for the first time.
I did update ntopng to the latest, but it didn't work then.
Does now on reboot. -
Still in 2.5.0 or 2.5.1-RC snapshots?
