        @jdlucena do you have 80 open to the public internet or something? What would be making to pfsense on 80 so much?

          The webgui listens on port 80 so it can redirect to 443 by default.

          [23.01-RELEASE][admin@cedev-6.stevew.lan]/root: sockstat -l | grep nginx
          root     nginx      65408 5   tcp4   *:443                 *:*
          root     nginx      65408 6   tcp6   *:443                 *:*
          root     nginx      65408 7   tcp4   *:80                  *:*
          root     nginx      65408 9   tcp6   *:80                  *:*
          root     nginx      65169 5   tcp4   *:443                 *:*

          root     nginx      65169 7   tcp4   *:80                  *:*
          root     nginx      65169 9   tcp6   *:80                  *:*
          root     nginx      64913 5   tcp4   *:443                 *:*
          root     nginx      64913 6   tcp6   *:443                 *:*
          root     nginx      64913 7   tcp4   *:80                  *:*
          root     nginx      64913 9   tcp6   *:80                  *:*
          

          Or maybe you have the gui running on http.

            @johnpoz I don't have anything on port 80 for the external public... I believe it is some machine on the network, as this only happens during working hours during the week, on the weekend this does not happen.

              I ran this command and it returned this:

              An important factor that I had not mentioned, I have installed NxFilter in pfSense as a DNS filter. Could it be something related to this?

                And why would that be hitting pfsense on port 80? What is hitting pfsense on port 80.. Do a sniff or look at your states, or look your connections with netstat and or sockstat - what is connected to pfsense on port 80??

                  Mmm, run sockstat and see what's using port 80. I assume you moved the webgui to 8180?

                  If you've installed some 3rd party package though anything is possible!
