**Legacy UART vs. UEFI serial**
|

=====================================================================================================================

|
Starting from OPNsense 22.1 (22.4 for the business edition), support for legacy serial UART0 communication is dropped,
|
|
|
|
|
since the upgrade to FreeBSD 13-STABLE required a switch to the UEFI serial protocol.
|
|
|
|
|
Prior to this, only legacy serial UART0 was possible. Should you connect your Deciso appliance with a serial line
|
|
|
|
|
and get limited output / no output from the point of handover to the OS, it is important your BIOS settings are updated
|
|
|
|
|
to disable legacy UART.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While in the BIOS, go to Setup Utility --> AMD CBS --> FCH Common Options --> UART Configuration Options --> UART 0 Legacy Options.
|
|
|
|
|
and make sure this setting is set to **Disabled**.
