Another successful OpenBSD setup

I've been buying these little boxes from AliExpress for years to use as firewalls and routers. My oldest one is almost 9 years old now! OpenBSD installs just fine. Just a BIOS tweak to always boot up after power is restored.

What bios tweak do you apply? That’s the one thing I still need to do.

These things are awesome!

Basically auto power on after restore power.

Meaning if you get unplugged (or power outage) turn back on like any other networking gear.
