IPSEC becomes unresponsive
-
Current build 22.01 (updated from 2.2.4)
I am having issue on pfsense + hosted on AWS after updating, from 2.2.4 to 22.01, every now and then vpn tunnels stops working and ipsec service cannot be restarted, ipsec is totally unresponsive, i have to reboot the firewall to fix the issue.
I have 50 VPN tunnels running with various sites.
Any help would be appreciated.

There is some reading for you, If you run
pgrep -f charonthenkill -9the PIDs, start IPSEC then restart IPSEC and it will come back up. You can do that as it's less disruptive than rebooting. It is a frustrating issue without much movement. -
@ablizno "frustrating"? it's a blocking problem that simply makes pfSense unfit for many scenarios (in fact, all of my firewall scenarios)
