      @stephenw10 so I not a fan or a user of upnp.. But I just enabled it to have it create the .conf file and yup it put in 2189 which doesn't make any sense

      [23.09-RELEASE][admin@sg4860.local.lan]/var/etc: cat miniupnpd.conf 
      ext_ifname=igb1
      port=2189
      listening_ip=igb4
      secure_mode=yes
      presentation_url=https://192.168.200.1:8443/
      uuid=da5797c4-0daa-f185-0994-a6afe6c2ecb
      serial=DA5797C4
      model_number=23.09-RELEASE
      enable_upnp=yes
      enable_natpmp=yes
      [23.09-RELEASE][admin@sg4860.local.lan]/var/etc: 
      

      But it is listening on 1900 as well

      [23.09-RELEASE][admin@sg4860.local.lan]/var/etc: sockstat | grep 1900
      root     miniupnpd  77102 7   udp4   *:1900                *:*
      [23.09-RELEASE][admin@sg4860.local.lan]/var/etc: sockstat | grep 2189
      root     miniupnpd  77102 4   tcp6   *:2189                *:*
      root     miniupnpd  77102 6   tcp4   *:2189                *:*
      [23.09-RELEASE][admin@sg4860.local.lan]/var/etc:

        Because that's the port minipnpd listens on the http:
        curl http://192.168.200.1:2189/rootDesc.xml

        As far as I know that can be omitted entirely and miniupnpd will use a random port.

        Setting it to 1900 is probably a bad idea since it should already be listening there. Though for udp.

          @stephenw10 were they come up with that port, I don't show it registered as that.. Pretty sure radware has that registered for something they do radware-rpm-s

          And I concur - setting that port in the config to 1900 prob not a good idea, and I would think really had nothing to do with his issue.. UPnP is UDP.

            Yeah, unclear. Looks like they removed that over on the other side after deciding it was pointless setting it.

              I disable port in the conf file and now miniupnpd use a random port.
              It's still working
              How can I know if the port 2189 is already use by another service ?

                    @PiAxel well if its running and you want to know what port it is using do

                    sockstat | grep miniupnpd

                        That seems fine. I have no explanation as to why changing the port value to 1900 seemed to allow it work though. That really shouldn't have changed anything significant.

                            The problem is back since update 23.09.1
                            everything seems to be working fine but neither my NAS nor any other network device can open a port via upnp. the games on my pc say that I am in strict NAT.
                            In pfsense stat upnp is empty.
                            f6d07078-2e0b-47d8-a9c1-71c6161f3078-image.png

                            I try with port=0 instead of 2189 but it didn't change anything

                            Tell me what you want to know about my pfsense.

                            Please help me!

                              I have disabled STUN and there is no more message with "port forwarding is now disabled" but that still doesn't work.

                                STUN: ext interface ix0 has now public IP address external ipv4 but firewall filters incoming connections set by miniunnpd

                                That implies you have something set that is preventing miniupnpd opening inbound ports somehow.

                                Do you have a custom block all rule on WAN or as Floating?

                                  No, I don't have any rule on WAN or as floating to block all

                                    Could be something upstream blocking it then. Try to send some traffic to your WAN from some external address and see if it arrives in a packet capture.
