          During the restore it prompts you to pick which is LAN and which is WAN. I don't know of a web page to give you, sorry.

          Yes, see
          https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/highavailability/index.html

          I would ask about that in the HA forum though.

              When you import the config it will take you to the interfaces re-assign screen so you can assign the new interfaces before it reboots.

              You can run pfSense in High Availability as Acitve-Passive:

                  https://support.google.com/websearch/thread/2596872?hl=en

                  this says reinstall Chrome:
                  https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/19766057/annoying-chrome-asks-for-captcha-every-single-time?hl=en

                  Not sure why you think it's pfSense related? You mention "though pfSense" but are other attempts coming from the same public IP address?

                    is it possible due to Proxy server setting like (Snort) or any other services In PFsense.

                      More likely because pfSense it sending that traffic over a VPN.

                      A proxy on pfSense would not change the source IP.

                      Snort is an IDS/IPS not a proxy. Squid is an http proxy. But it's not either of those things.

                              So.... unrelated to the previous issue with Google search?

                              You should open a new thread.

                                  So you want to log any down time on each gateway?

                                  You can check the gateway logs for alarm entries it will show when a gateway is marked down and when it is back up.

                                    If this, what you are reporting here, was pointed to a power
                                    outage, you might be perhaps als looking for a qualified
                                    UPS unit (Uninterruptible power supply) also. It should
                                    then be able to hold both pfSense firewalls if you run a
                                    active/passive setup. Try tog et the same box again
                                    might be also nice for narrow down troubleshooting.
