@netnerdy the stock igb driver or the custom one? Thanks!
-
@nedyah700 Bummer. I tried you solution, but it didn't work on my system.
I reviewed your script which is significantly different from mine. I don't have anything about wpa_supplicant.
My system has been working great for many years and I'm foggy on the details of how I made it all work :/
-
@nedyah700 yes it is stock igb.
If you want to get rid of ngeth, you need something that strips the vlan 0 from the network packets. This could be running pfsense under esxi and use a virtual network adapter set to “vlan 0” or plug a switch between your ONT and your pfsense, which is what I do.
-
You are correct. Despite showing loaded in kldstat it did not attach.
With my compiled igb module I don't get any of the iflib lines but with both the stock and compiled em module I still get
dev.igb.5.iflib.driver_version: 7.6.1-kI can try to re-compile?
-
Mmm, hard to say since it's em not igb.... doesn't override the in-kernel igb....which is actually just em.
But it's not iflib so I would imagine it isn't affected by the same issue. I'm not sure it's worth the effort.
We know this is an issue with the e1000 driver in 22.01/2.6 and netgraph/VLAN0.

ha! Yea I thought about that and tried just naming it if_igb.ko but that had the same result so who knows.
Anyways, hope the fix makes it in a future release. Appreciate it!
-
@stephenw10 just an FYI someone else used the combined em driver for an em based NIC and it resolved the issue for them.
-
are there any updates on this one? is there a chance the newer driver could make it into 2.6.1?
-
Not as the default since it's a non-iflib driver. What was tested here at least.
If the alternative Intel driver was available via ports if could be made available potentially.
The 'correct' solution here is to fix whatever broke netgraph support in the iflib driver. If that hasn't already happened.

I believe a fix for the iflib driver is available. Tracked in this Redmine regression. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12821?next_issue_id=12820
Hope we can get that incorporated into the next release!

Oh, yup that is in main so 2.7 snapshots now:
https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-src/commit/9c762cc125c0c2dae9fbf49cc526bb97c14b54a4
So it looks like we are waiting for someone to test it in a 2.7 snap and provide some feedback.Steve

Ah! I missed the comitt. I'll try and give it a shot this weekend.
Thanks!

Guys, I’m having a hell of a time rolling back from 2.6.0 to 2.5.2 with bypass mode.
I made a USB with the 2.5.2 image, and put /config/config.xml on the FAT32 partition. The config was taken immediately before the upgrade, where the bypass had been happily chugging along for a year or more.
I ran through the installer, and when it rebooted I pulled the USB. pf happily booted into a fresh config. Ugh.
I rebooted with the USB plugged in, and used the BIOS boot selector to choose the internal disk. This time it picked up the config, but it complained that it couldn’t find pfatt.sh and negth0.
What do I need to do to get up and running again?
Thank you!
-
The script is not stored in the config so you would need to re-upload that. Unless you used the filer package maybe but then you would still need to reinstall that at first boot. But that can't happen until the WAN connects so you'd be in chicken/egg scenario there.
-
@stephenw10, thank you! At the end of the pf install it offers to drop out to a shell, could I copy the script over from USB so it would be in place for the first boot?
-
Yes, probably. I've never tried to do that though. I'm also not burdened by AT&T.
I would probably install 2.5.2 clean.
Boot into the default install and upload the pfatt scripts.
Restore the config that presumably contains the shellcmds to run it.Steve

Lucky!

I’m getting a permissions error even though it’s 555 on the tree and the script. It’s happening if I use the installer shell, and also if I let the misconfigured pf boot and come into it by ssh. What might be happening, please?

What folder is the sh in?

@timtrace When I clean installed 2.6.0 (and 22.01 on my pfSense+ Box) absolutely nothing I did allowed my pfatt script to runs successfully from the /cf/conf directory. I ended up moving it to /root/pfatt and everything worked. This seemed to only be an issue once I moved to a ZFS file system but who knows.
