      Yeah, they are for AWS. But no, no custom values, just have monitoring turned off.

        Can we see the gateways section from the config you are importing? You can redact any public IP there if you wish.

            That appears to be only the ipsec config. What matters here is the gateway section like:

            	<gateways>
            		<gateway_item>
            			<interface>opt9</interface>

                Great. Nothing jumps out at me there, I've raised it with our devs.

                  Hmm, OK are you able to retest that?

                  If so try removing the <interval/> lines from the config before importing it. If that prevents the error we should be able to add something to allow it.

                      Test was successful most of the settings are now in the new system. A few things aren't working, like the openVPN service and DHCP service won't start but I think it might be because it doesn't have any real connections.
                      I'm also getting the following error now.

                      PHP Errors:
                      [28-Nov-2023 03:29:20 America/Chicago] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot access offset of type string on string in /etc/inc/upgrade_config.inc:4290

                        Still into 2.7.0 not 2.7.1?
                        https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/RELENG_2_7_0/src/etc/inc/upgrade_config.inc#L4290

                        if (!is_array($dhcpd['numberoptions']['item'])) {
                        

                        Do you have custom numbered options in your dhcp server config?

                          Yes I have 10 total different networks(vlans) with different scopes and 7 of those use the DHCP server.

                            Right but do any of them have numbered options set like:

                              Yeah, "66" on my phone VLAN.

                              Oh and yeah I must have downloaded this before the update to 2.7.1, It's been on the workbench a little while. I'll update it.

                                Ok, I don't expect 2.7.1 to be any different but the line numbers in the php error might have changed.
