wikiQuerying FreeBSD hardware information
FreeBSD provides multiple commands that allow to display information on the used hardware. In this article, we show some of these commands. Unless otherwise stated, we have used a LES v4 with OPNsense version 23.7
camcontrol
The service program camcontrol enables the controlling of the FreeBSD CAM-subsystem. CAM stands for Common Access Method. It is a generic way to address I/O buses in a SCSI-like manner. With the parameter ‘devlist’, it displays the available devices.
# camcontrol devlist
The output (in this example on an LES v4 with two SSDs in a ZFS mirror) shows:
<ATP SATA III M.2 2242 SBFMB1.1> at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (pass0,ada0) <INTEL SSDSC2BB080G6 G2010130> at scbus1 target 0 lun 0 (pass1,ada1)
clog /var/log/system.log
The support for clog has been removed with OPNsense 22.1 and the last clog components have been removed with the 22.7 release.[1]
root@OPNsense:~ # clog clog: Command not found.
opnsense-log
The opnsense-log is an alternative for clog /var/log/system.log.

NAME
opnsense-log – OPNsense log utility
SYNOPSIS
opnsense-log [-fln] [type]
DESCRIPTION
The opnsense-log utility will display the current selected log file type
content.
The options are as follows:
-f Use tail(1) instead of cat(1) to display the log content.
-l List all available log types.
-n Display the log file to use if it exists.
EXIT STATUS
The opnsense-log utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
SEE ALSO
cat(1), tail(1)

dmidecode
The dmidecode tool shows the content of the DMI (Desktop Management Interface) tables:
# dmidecode
Under FreeBSD and OPNsense, dmidecode usually has to be installed manually. With OPNsense, dmidecode can also be installed via the integrated plugin management ("os-dmidecode" package):
# pkg install dmidecode
The output shows:

freebsd-version
The freebsd-version command shows the version as well as the patchlevel of the installed version.
The '-k' version shows the kernel version:
# freebsd-version -k
The output shows:

The '-u' option shows the userland version:
# freebsd-version -u
The output shows:

usbconfig
The usbconfig tool shows details on connected USB-devices:
# usbconfig
In this case, the output shows a USB WiFi stick installed on LES v4 for testing purposes and a Quectel LTE modem:
root@OPNsense:~ # usbconfig ugen0.1: <Intel XHCI root HUB> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=SUPER (5.0Gbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA) ugen0.2: <802.11n USB WLAN> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON (500mA) ugen0.3: <Quectel EM12-G> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=SUPER (5.0Gbps) pwr=ON (224mA)
The -h option displays information about additional commands:

Details about a specific device can be queried using the -d option to select the device and the dump_all_desc command:
# usbconfig -d ugen0.2 dump_all_desc
The output shows:

x86info
The x86info tool allows to read out a wealth of information about the processor used, for example Intel Microcode version.
Hint: x86info is not provided at OPNsense (that is based on FreeBSD). So that it can still be installed via pkg install x86info, FreeBSD packages must first be temporarily approved for installation. (Set entry in /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf on yes). After installation, this entry should be set back to "no".
Installation of x86info under OPNsense:
root@OPNsense:~ # vi /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
root@OPNsense:~ # cat /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
FreeBSD: { enabled: yes }
root@OPNsense:~ # pkg install x86info

In order for the tool to run, the cpuctl module must first be loaded using kldload. The following example shows the output of x86info on an LES v4.
