pfSense not enabling port
-
@georgelza Yes it seems like the problem exists also in Proxmox. Where I was going with the dmesg command was to figure out if there was any additional information about e.g. incompatible module. Do you know what chipset Topton is using for the NIC's?
There is a (small) chance that the nw-card will not accept an "unsupported" module. This can be solved as per the first post in this thread: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/unsupported-sfp-module.84555/Basically it's an override that tells the card not to check the module...
Simply add the file /etc/modprobe.d/ixgbe.conf if it doesn't exist. And add the one row
options ixgbe allow_unsupported_sfp=1
Not sure if it should be =1 or =1,1 (since it's a dual port card). -
@Gblenn said in pfSense not enabling port:
ou know what chipset Topton is using for the NIC's?
trying hard to find out, but talking to AliExpress chinese not easy. all i got was a install the following driver, and a rar file, which then extracts to a exe... slight problem i'm on a mac, and there is no windows machines in the house, and i'm not sure building a windows vm would work.

after the above.
what i have noticed though, my port on the switch has gone red, complaining of packet loss etc.
wonder if we need to go back to auto negotiate.
ip a
i did have to bring the interfaces up, both the vlan30 that sits on vmbr0 and vmbr40 was down.1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 ::1/128 scope host noprefixroute valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: enp2s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq master vmbr0 state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether a8:b8:e0:02:a3:71 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: enp3s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether a8:b8:e0:02:a3:72 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 4: enp5s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether a8:b8:e0:02:a3:73 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: enp6s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether a8:b8:e0:02:a3:74 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 8: vmbr0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether a8:b8:e0:02:a3:71 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 172.16.10.50/24 scope global vmbr0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::aab8:e0ff:fe02:a371/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 9: vmbr40: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether a8:b8:e0:05:f0:91 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet6 fe80::aab8:e0ff:fe05:f091/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 10: tap100i0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,PROMISC,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master fwbr100i0 state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether c6:2d:5a:7a:41:d7 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 11: fwbr100i0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether da:0c:52:e1:39:89 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 12: fwpr100p0@fwln100i0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master vmbr0 state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 76:c4:56:d3:6a:93 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 13: fwln100i0@fwpr100p0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master fwbr100i0 state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether da:0c:52:e1:39:89 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 14: tap100i1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,PROMISC,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master fwbr100i1 state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether 76:c9:86:22:cc:30 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 15: fwbr100i1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:9a:1c:4d:76:a6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 16: fwpr100p1@fwln100i1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master vmbr0 state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 26:2d:af:5a:9a:b4 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 17: fwln100i1@fwpr100p1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master fwbr100i1 state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:9a:1c:4d:76:a6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 18: tap100i2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,PROMISC,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master fwbr100i2 state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether c2:9f:1f:4e:c6:2e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 19: fwbr100i2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 7a:a8:67:a9:29:14 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 20: fwpr100p2@fwln100i2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master vmbr40 state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 72:43:cc:4b:b3:40 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 21: fwln100i2@fwpr100p2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master fwbr100i2 state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 7a:a8:67:a9:29:14 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 22: vlan30@vmbr0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether a8:b8:e0:02:a3:71 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet6 fe80::aab8:e0ff:fe02:a371/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 23: enp4s0f0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether a8:b8:e0:05:f0:91 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 24: enp4s0f1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether a8:b8:e0:05:f0:92 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

on my switch side i run
172.16.10.0/24 as my primary on the physical port
then have the following vlans defined atm
(running on the same above physical port)
vlan20 - 172.16.20.0/24 -> all wifi devices
vlan30 - 172.16.30.0/24 -> will be "vmotion/k8s cluster interconnect"vlan40 - 172.16.40.0/24 -> will be storage/io to be used by all to access the TrueNAS. 10GbE based on dedicated port.
i've configured vmbr0 and vmbr40.
i ended configuring vlan30 as a vlan on vmbr0.G
-
@georgelza Did you unplug the module from the SPF+ port on the Proxmox machine? What happens if you plug it in again, only the Proxmox side and leave the switch side hanging. Anything new that shows up from dmesg?
-
did not touch the physical side.
i've since rechecked the switch and reset to manual and redefined it as 10GbE DFX
re-issued the ethtool command on the pmox level.

ok, got it back active on the switch.
noticed that in pmox under network it was active=no, switched it to autostart and it seemed to have figured out to start itself.

thinking need to figure out how to address the port...
tried
options ixgbe allow_unsupported_sfp=1
and
options ixgbe allow_unsupported_sfp=1.1
and
options ixgbe allow_unsupported_sfp=0.1
and
options ixgbe allow_unsupported_sfp=0.0 -
i'm starting to question if the 10GbE is actually up...
i'm thinking when i ping the gw from pmox or the ubuntu-01 image it actually goes out the default gw over the vmbr0 bridge. and not out via the SFP+for some reason i'm also not getting a ip on vlan30 on the guest vm, vlan30 runs over vmbr0
well let me add... if i make some changes on the pmox side it does break the switch side so the physical link is there, and there is some level of comm, or is that disagreement.
G
-
note to self, when de-configuring something to check something... dont reconfigure your main/only interface... especially if machines are 10foot of the ground on a shelve with no Kvm in place. ;)
can confirm that the green and orange light on the SFP+ port is having a party, matching on switch is just flickering red.

@Gblenn said in pfSense not enabling port:
ixgbe allow_unsupported_sfp=1
The allow_unsupported option can only be 1 or 0, it's on or off. It applies to all ixgbe attached devices applied there.
Nothing posted here so far looks like it's linking correctly to me.
Did you ever try just linking the two SFP+ ports directly to see if it would link up and be stable?
-
ok... my assumption confirmed...
even though there is light travelling down the fiber link it's not working.
the pings was going out the default gw.
i disabled the vlan0/172.16.10.51 interface on ubuntu-01 and tried to ping out on all networks, all failed, the second i re-enabled it all worked.

explain.
ok, corrected mod_probe, set to =1.
executed the reload.below is the output, port on switch has gone red now.
wondering if it might sense to get the port and the interface to be back on auto negotiate.G

@georgelza said in pfSense not enabling port:
explain.
I mean just link the two SFP ports on the Topton together to see if it will link without flapping. You obviously won't be able to pass any traffic but if it shows a stable link on both ports in that situation it's probably some low level issue between the ix ports and the switch.
Though thinking more you could set that up in proxmox so you could pass traffic between them by having them on separate bridges.

@stephenw10 will try tomorrow.
received a package bout 30min, ago, havent opened it, but think it could be the DAC cable and the 2nd Transceiver.

sweeeeeet... so ye that delivery was 1 x DAC, 1 x other brand SFP+ Transciever.
plugged the DAC in between switch and pfsense SFP+ port 0
plugged the new Transceiver into pmox SFP+ port0
both started flashing...
go onto unifi network controller, both SFP+ ports immediately changed colour to hey we got something we recognise, vs grey or red.in pmox console,

happiness, making progress in right direction...
i configured my pfSense console to be accessible via 2nd address on 172.16.40.1. reconfigured that via primary 172.16.10.1 interface to now be serviced/routed via ix0, then connected to console via new 2nd, working so have a back door ;)
connected via back door and went and reconfigured vlan0, vlan20, vlan30 to now be routed via ix0 also. hit refresh on my browser which access console via 172.16.10.1 and did same for 172.16.40.1, still accessible.
at this point the below picture reflect pfsense config.Ok, this seemed good. but (once i unplugged the 2.5 igc1 cat6 cable between ProMax port24 and pfSense ) now found i could not access anything else that sat on 172.16.10.0/24 network.
At this point wondering... am i trying to get something to work and whats the value of it... does it make sense...
To fix the above I reconfigured onto this.
Maybe leave vlan0, vlan20, vlan30 and vlan100 on igc1 as all the device that connect to that themself are either wifi, 1GbE or 2.5GbE based.
then leave vlan40 on ix0 and the device that will on there is 10GbE based.
I got an aggregation on the way anyhow. so SFP+ port 2 on pfSense will go into aggregation and the pmox and TrueNAS will go into that.some comments, view's
note, on ubuntu-01 i still dont have a ip assigned to the vlan30 and vlan40 interfaces... so thats i guess the last to be fixed...

for reference, here is my pmox datacenter
and pmox1 server network configuration.
interesting enough, without telling my unifi environment, this is what it's showing.
<note the MAC addresses assigned to net1 and net2 has been dhcp reserved in pfsense on the respective vlans as 172.16.30.11 and 172.16.40.11
<interesting take away, the unifi has no problem with the Dell/EMC SFP+ (dell emc ftlx8574d3bnl-fc) Transcievers, it's on the Topton side where they are not liked, I have found a thread on lawrenceIT that points to the following transceivers working also>
