Cool I will give it a go this morning and let you know.

awesome, for Xen just don't select the Dom0 question in the end, default is No anyway

Ok

@User Check dmesg on the XS host and see if there are drops due to mtu

This message was deleted.

but @User had problem with the StarTech USB adapter and MTU right?

Yes

I poked through the dmesg logs and don't see any messages about MTU

But exact same behavior. Just wanted to rile it out before he troubleshot a different path

@User Then it is likely something with pfsense

It's certainly possible I'm missing it somewhere 🙂 I tried to grep on MTU as well but found nothing.

Check logs for drops there?

Yes, I’ve been breathing it lately. Did you add any services like pfblocker? I’d also narrow down the browser to DNS or routing. I would guess you missed something like a gateway (I’ve done it!) and it’s likely not the pfsense. Hit me direct if you want more help, I run pfsense at home and if I can’t figure it out, I have about 15 experts who can (from Red Hat).

This only happened when I misconfigured blocking with pfblock, are you using pfsense without addons?

As far as I am aware, I am using vanilla pfsense with nothing configured but any/any and the WAN and LAN ports 🙂

Have any of you used Weasel (with vmware) - https://github.com/vmware/weasel

Searching for a cheap >=8ports 10GbE switch for my lab. Currently have 2 supermicro servers with vMotion in crossover and working fine, but would need a switch for the 3rd one.

@User shop XS708E-200NES

Yeah, I also found that one. Seems to be the cheapest, right? 😞

Always thought size of case was overboard

yeah, there was some 10GbE UniFi switches at half price $299, but they're long gone, that's because @Jarian Gibson picked up 6......

@Jarian Gibson agree, just an empty shell

They should do a small sized one

I'm waiting for unifi to release to 8 port 10GbE in the current 8 port 1GbE with sfp size

Hey I couldn't pass up 48 sfp+ & 16 rj45 ports

For that $$$

I'm not a big fan of SFP+ due to cost. Those DAC cables aren't cheap...

@User Source your DAC cables from www.fs.com

Unifi sfps are cheap
