I have a client with 2 Netgate 7100s that are configured via CARP. all of a sudden the port which is designated as Sync has stopped working and shows that nothing is plugged into it even though, both firewalls are connected.
I have tried to disable and re-enable the ports on both devices. That didnt help.
He plugged a new patch cable into port 8 in the switch and the devices still say no carrier.
The other issue he is having is that the firewall rules seem to work sometimes or there is a delay before the rules start working.
It takes 5 seconds to pop the old battery and put a new one. BIOS may lose its time but I don’t think your settings are affected since they are stored in your ssd.
I definitely know it would be the time. Im sending a tech there who is just going to replace the batteries and I dont want to have to walk him through a bios ive never seen.
Trying to have all the bases covered - I put a photo of the motherboard in the ticket so that he knows where it is.
Well that is pretty strange because it looks like they have VLANS defined on the firewall and for the firewalls to communicate the switch needs VLANs defined to pass that traffic.
