      Ok, looks identical to the U250S. If you run system reboot there you will see the bootlog for the switch which contains the model and version etc.

      You need to enable the ports. You can check the mode and state with, for example:

      >port conf
      
      Port Configuration:
      ===================
      
      
      Port  State     Mode         Flow Control  MaxFrame  Power     Excessive  Link

      2     Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    1Gfdx
      3     Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    Down
      4     Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    1Gfdx
      5     Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    Down
      6     Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    1Gfdx
      7     Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    Down
      8     Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    Down
      9     Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    Down
      10    Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    Down
      11    Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    1Gfdx
      12    Enabled   Auto         Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    100fdx
      13    Enabled   1Gfdx        Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    1Gfdx
      14    Enabled   1Gfdx        Disabled      9600      Disabled  Discard    1Gfdx
      

      You probably need to enable some, or all, For example port state 7-9 enable.

      You will probably also want to configure some VLANs so you can use the ports as separate interfaces:

      >vlan conf

      I just noticed you're running 32bit 2.3.5 Nano. Is that not a 64bit CPU in the U70S/SN300? You should definitely install 2.4.5p1 if so.

        Otherwise the ports are activated when a cable is connected, but I do not have web access

          @FaceOfHorroOds said in Installer Pfsense Stormshield SN300:

          CPU: VIA Nano U3500@1000MHz

          Ok well the performance is not going to be very special.... but it is a 64bit CPU so you should be using 2.4.5p1 there.
          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_VIA_Nano_microprocessors#%22Nano_3000%22_series_(65nm)[12][13]

          There is no need to configure an IP on the switch. I was never able to connect to it that way but you probably don't want it available there anyway. It would be very easy to expose it to the WAN which you don't want.

          You will need to configure at least two VLANs (or one VLAN and untagged) in order to have two interfaces to route between. You will be configuring as 'router-on-a-stick' with the switch providing the VLAN access ports.

          To escape the console session to the switch enter: ~~.

            How to install pfsense 2.4.5p1 without the nanobsd-vga.img?

            I tried with pfSense-CE-memstick-2.4.5-RELEASE-p1-amd64.img, but it seems to be a live boot

            Booting with pfSense-CE-memstick-2.4.5-RELEASE-p1-amd64.img via a USB key seems impossible.

            All configuration is done via the serial console of the switch? in cu -l cuau1 -s 19200

            Otherwise, I changed the memory from 1 GB to 2 GB

              When I installed the U250S I installed pfSense on a different machine and than moved the drive back into it.
              I could not make it boot from USB there either it appears to be locked in the BIOS.

              Yes, all the switch config is done via the internal serial connection. I tried again yesterday out of curiosity and although the switch is able to get an IP and connect on the correct VLAN it does not respond to ssh/telnet/http(s).
              I believe the Stormshield/Netasq OS is FreeBSD based and they upstreamed code for the etherswitch framework but sadlu not for this switch for whatever reason.
              E.g. https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-src/commit/63843c9be40aba2fb7e803960fb7d4fcee1d3eeb#diff-2c6515420922ed8e8d8f0cf43c645431

                I already did and I just did it again.

                I connected the 2 GB SSD to a SATA to USB adapter

                alt text

                I start on Pfsense with my Zalman VE300, select the 2GB SSD with partition in MBR, access commands and and I execute the command poweroff

                I put the SSD back in the Stormshield, I start it, I have the Stormshield logo, then a black screen with the blinking cursor _

                I have nothing via the console port.

                I use the file : pfSense-CE-2.4.5-RELEASE-p1-amd64.iso

                  I installed in another device with a serial console using the serial memstick image.
                  But if you install on something from ISO you would have to first enable the serial console before you swap the SATA module back.

                    Here's a return,

                    I managed to install pfsense 2.4.5 x64 last night.

                    The problem probably came from start-up mode (Legacy / UEFI).

                    On the PC, I forced the start of the installation of pfsense in legacy.

                    Pfsense has also started and I did a little configuration in cu -l cuau1 -s 19200

                      With that config you should be able to connect to pfSense in the one address it has. All 9 ports are in vlan1, it's configured like an unmanaged switch.

                      But you probably want to configure at least 2 VLANs so you van have, for example, WAN on port1 and LAN on ports 2-8.

                      Or you could have 8 VLANs with each port configured separately.

                          I put back the version "pfSense-CE-memstick-2.4.5-RELEASE-p1-amd64.img" however the command "~~" does not work to exit the serial port

                            The escape command is ~~.

                            To escape just the local console session it would be ~. but you are in a session inside that.

                            You really need to be on the current version.

                                  Hmm, weird. I will say the terminal only looks for escape characters immediately following a return. I usually hit return a couple of time before ending it to be sure.

                                      Did you add the VLANs in pfSense on the internal interface?

                                      Never use VLAN 1.

                                      Here's how I have mine:

                                      Though now I'm looking at it 'Untag PVID' would probably be better there. Hmm, been a long while since I configured that....

                                      Ports 13 and 14 are the internal ports in the u250s. I have them as an LACP lagg.

                                        Ok reviewing the untag all doesn't matter since it only untags member VLANs. In my case I don't have any mixed tagged/untagged ports so I could either.

                                        You need to have port 9 a member of all the VLANs so it carries them tagged to pfSense.

                                        The frame type needs to be 'all' since that port is carrying tagged and untagged traffic.

                                        At least port 9 should be set to c-port or unaware so it tags for vlans.

                                          I only have vlan 1 put on the em0 interface in WAN

                                          On the internal interface? em0?

                                          Internal ports? what does it correspond to?

                                          I have port 9, I tried to put port 9 in "Frame Type : Tagged" and I lost control in ssh.

                                          I didn't understand what "S-Port" and "C-Port" were

                                            Yes em0 is the internal port, it's connected to port 9 on the switch.

                                            It's frame type has to be 'all' because it's carrying tagged and untagged traffic in your setup.

                                            Then you need to create the vlan interfaces in pfSense on em0.
                                            So em0.2 em0.3 etc.
