Running the server for the first time In this section, you’ll perform the following tasks:

Download the Minecraft server binaries. Accept the Minecraft end user license agreement (EULA). Start the server. To download the Minecraft server binaries:

Configure

Spigot

Press “Download latest BuildTools.jar”

Then press “Build Spigot” to the right of the version you want (1.15.1). You might have to refresh your webbrowser. It is buildt when you have “Delete” and “Copy to server” buttons.

Profiles

Create New Server

Create a new server.

Then go to Spigot. Select your server. Press Copy to Server Copy compiled binaries to server directory, and select your server. Click “Copy to server”.

Dashboard

Go to Dashboard, select your newly created server.

Click Start. 1.1. Change profile to: 1.15.1 1.2. Change runnable jar to: minecraft_server.1.15.1.jar

Memory Allocation (Heapsize)

Whitelist

Go to LOGGING > logs/latest.log

Add users by typing next to the >:

Change VLAN

My game servers are on VLAN 120.

This VLAN is sent to my interface (bridge0), amongst other VLANS.

Edit the jail, go to Network Properties and select interfaces vnet0:bridge1, change that to vnet0:bridge0. Click SAVE.

Now the jail will boot up with the network that has VLANs. But it will only have the ipaddress of the untagged network.

Check what your interface is called by issuing ifconfig:

root@MineOS:~ # ifconfig
epair0b: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500

(...)

Edit rc.conf:

root@MineOS:~ # nano /etc/rc.conf
# Enable VLAN
vlans_epair0b="120"
ifconfig_epair0b_120="DHCP"

Stop and start the MineOS jail.

Issue command for starting DHCP on the VLAN 120 interface:

root@MineOS:~ # dhclient epair0b.120

Create VLAN

ADD VLAN

FreeNAS gui > Network > VLANs. Click ADD.

Virtual Interface: vlan120 Parent Interface: em1 (the physical interface where tagged VLAN traffic is coming) Vlan Tag: 120 Description: Game Servers Priority Code Point: Best effort (default)

Define cloned interfaces / create a bridge

Go to FreeNAS gui > System > Tunables. Click ADD.

Bridge0 is my bridge where I receive the VLANs.

Variable: cloned_interfaces Value: bridge0 bridge120 Type: rc Comment: Setup bridges Enabled: Yes

Add VLAN to your created bridge120
