WAN requiring root CA to be installed for internet access

Ok to keep old software. But mixing new stuff (pfSense 2.7.2 uses FreeBSD 14) on old stuff, is like installing windows 11 on a PC without a TPM : you can (probably) force it, but it needs uncommon knowledge to do so.

I know, but the iron does not support 6.0 and later.

Unfortunately, a bit later the VM shutted down by itself. Tried the exact same procedure, but no go.

The problem is likely the vmxnet3 driver. Change your virtual machine to use the e1000 NIC driver and try again. You will take a performance hit using the e1000 virtual driver, but that should let the newer pfSense boot and run.

Very useful info, thanks. Will give it a try, when I find some time to reschedule this experiment.
