[HECnet] Off Topic - pfSense on Hyper-V

[Rob Jarratt]

I could have a go at completely resetting the config. I will have to wait until the weekend to be able to give it a go.

Rob, I use OPNsense on hyper-v with no problem and it is fully up to date update/patch wise.

 

Although this may not help, OPNsense was based on a fork of pfsense. I have had odd connectivity issues before which has resulted in stripping back the config and starting again, and thinking about it one did happen after an update a couple of years ago where the config didn’t seem to update properly. A rebuild of the config sorted it.

Is it something to do with the virtual switch setting that permits/prevents multiple Mac addresses from the same virtual adapter?

I realise this is completely off topic, but I think this list has a lot of experienced networking people, so I am hoping someone might have a suggestion.

 

I have pfSense running as my firewall at home, running on Hyper-V. In case you don’t know, it runs on FreeBSD. I have run it for a few years and really want to get it upgraded to the latest. But when I do the upgrade doesn’t work because every packet in the WAN interface seems to get lost, it just cannot send anything to the WAN. The LAN side is fine.

 

I posted on the pfSense forums about this a long time ago. I got some questions about the MTU, but it was fine

 

I was just wondering if you have any thoughts/suggestions/experiences?

 

Thanks

 

Rob
