The certs failed to authenticate as AT&T had updated the certs on my RG/ONT overnight. When I first tried this, I pulled the certs from my RG and waited until the next day to finish.

I pulled the 802.1x certificates and ONT MAC address from my BGW210-700 gateway using the instructions outlined here. Accessing the filesystem will require downgrading the RG firmware so PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK. der binary files on the RG and will need to be converted to. I am not the one that figured this out, I am merely aggregating multiple people's efforts for other OPNsense users that may want to try this while leaving myself a bread trail in case I need to repeat this in the future.įor supplicant mode, you will need the 802.1x certificates located on the RG as well as the MAC address of the ONT port.

All supplicant mode needs is to call a single line of code ( /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -s -B -Dwired -ivmx2 -c/etc/wpa_nf &). Supplicant mode does not use complicated Netgraph scripting that bridge mode requires. I decided to go with supplicant mode as it is less complicated, with fewer components required, AND it gets rid of my RG completely (saving me 36 watts running 24/7). I have read the many ways of bypassing including bridge and supplicant modes. I am running OPNsense 20.1 as a VM on an ESXi 7.0.1 host. I am an AT&T fiber customer and wanted to bypass my residential gateway (RG) and connect the OPNsense WAN interface directly to my ONT.
