Wan periodic reset causes system reboot.

AlexanderK

@stephenw10 i could install 23.09 and enabled ipv6.
I have, with 23.09 crash reports after reboot.

Do you want to send you the files?

stephenw10

Sure I'd li(k)e to see those You can upload them here: https://nc.netgate.com/nextcloud/index.php/s/ywzFPM3F8GZnRdb

Are you seeing the same behaviour as 23.05.1?

Probably an extreme measure but we appreciate your commitment!

stephenw10

Doh!

AlexanderK

@stephenw10
yes exactly the same
i had 2 crashes. will upload them

done!
please check and let me know

stephenw10

Ok I see them. Checking....

stephenw10

Ok one of those is different. It looks like this: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/14917
Almost certainly because you're running PIMD. Are you able to test running without PIMD?

That and the PPPoE bug are likely related if not actually the same root cause IMO. The interface is detached without closing/clearing the connections on it.

AlexanderK

@stephenw10
What is the PIMD?

The issue with PPPOE is that i reset my connection everything night at 3 am. After resetting i have kernel panic and reboot

What is the PIMD?

It's a package you have installed:

<118> Starting package PIMD...done.

I note you also have the UDP broadcast-relay installed and those things server similar functions. You probably don't need both.
I have only seen that multicast routing bug caused by PIMD or IGMPProxy though.

AlexanderK

@stephenw10

removed both and will check

AlexanderK

@stephenw10 again reboot and crash report.
Should i uploaded them again?

Drop link was valid so i uploaded them.
Please have a look

Ok that is almost certainly the PPPoE + IPv6 crash:

I assume your PPPoE link went down at that time?

AlexanderK

@stephenw10 yes every night at 3 a.m. i reset my wan connection
So you have found the bug we are discussing about?

Of course - you are not alone in having this issue - hence the redmine activity and additional fault-finding. The first part of this issue was fixed a while back but the 'fix' unmasked a deeper problem.

AlexanderK

@RobbieTT so we disable ipv6 and wait for the fix?

It's going to up to the individual users. I need IPv6 so turning it off is not an option. I also have no option for WAN other than PPPoE, so that is fixed too.

I also cannot be without a connection, so have another box ready to go. I also cannot leave it to my wife and/or daughter to sort-out when I am away and they are working from home - so I have to have a non-pfSense option for those periods.

It hasn't been a great experience for me but pfSense needs* contributors to get these things addressed.

* Well, ignoring the recent kick-in-the-face for dev users. That behaviour will have to change or pfSense will start to die, just like many others before them.

stephenw10

Is there a reason you are resetting it every night? Though obviously that shouldn't trigger this.

AlexanderK

@stephenw10
For privacy....old habits...
New day...new ip...

stephenw10

Ah OK just to cycle a new WAN IP? Do you actually get a new IPv6 IP doing that?

AlexanderK

@stephenw10

i haven't noticed about ipv6 but ipv4 is new every time.

i have some personal selfhosted apps and by changing ip every day i think i protect them somehow....
