Same Tracking ID across multiple firewall rules after copying rules to other interfaces

[OffstageRoller]

I'm seeing on some interfaces, most rules have the same Tracking ID assigned to them. I'm wondering if this is a bug and I should report it in Redmine?

I am able to reproduce this.

If you copy a rule on the same interface, you get a new Tacking ID.

However, if you copy multiple rules from one interface to another, the new rules on the new interface all have the same Tracking ID.

I'm going to go through and clone each of my rules on the affected interfaces to correct this (since cloning creates a new Tracking ID), but I'm posting here because there may be a bug in pfSense and I wanted to see if anyone has seen this before or ask if I should report this as a bug in Redmine.

Notice all the same values for most of the rules on this interface?

They have the same Tracking ID's

@offstageroller If you selected multiple rules and clicked the "copy" button on the rules page to create new ones they will have the same tracking ID. This is a bug in the current release that is being fixed in the next. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13507

Thank you for letting me know! I won't create a duplicate bug ticket then :).

If anyone else runs into this issue, an "easy" solution is to duplicate each affected rule, one by one, on the affected interface, and then delete the original rule above it. Apply those changes and you'll have unique id's for each rule on that page.
