Last time I set up an embedded (1.2.2 on my home router) I booted the device, reset the DHCP lease on my desktop and connected to 192.168.1.1 and configured it by reloading the config file. No serial port required, even though I do have one hooked up. [Christopher Iarocci] His config does not fit one of the embedded systems, so his NIC cards won't even be set up to do what you did via DHCP. The embedded images have that portion pre-done so you can do that. He needs to be able to interact with that first step of configuring the NIC cards. Doing it by manually editing the config is the only real option. I had to do that when I put the full version on my Soekris board. I installed to a regular computer, then changed the interface to COM port. He will need to do the same thing, except change it to USB. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
