wireguard has always been active. traffic always goes to the remote point, but when I activate the backup that has the remote point as a second copy pfsense crashes
-
Great we're trying to replicate it here.
-
if desired we can make a wireguard vpn pfsense to my router and give you an nfs endpoint to simulate the backup repository and test traffic
-
I was unable to make it panic. I set up a WireGuard tunnel between two 23.09.1 ESXi (7.0.3) VMs and tried to reproduce this in a couple ways. First with the iperf3 client/server on the firewalls themselves, then second with the iperf3 client/server on hosts behind the firewalls. Both were TCP tests, no NAT, which ran for over 8 hours each.

@security_sharezone If you're able to test this with iperf and still trigger it that then points to the ESXi version difference.
-
i have done various tests to isolate the problem and i think at this point it is the nfs outbound protocol. this is because from another true pfsense location always nfs but this time inbound i have no problems

@stephenw10
nothing continuos crash. you have idea ? -
I don't personally. I don't run VMWare at all though. I know several of our devs do though and are not hitting it. Yet.
