      Is this normal, but can be fixed and should I or where can I report this?

      • ntopng - Network Traffic Monitor
      • lpfb_dnsbl - pfBlockerNG DNSBL service
      • pfb_filter - pfBlockerNG firewall filter service
      • suricata - Suricata IDS/IPS Daemon

      These services don't restart after a Reroot.

        You mean they are not restarted? Or that after rerooting they are not started? Because I would certainly expect them to be stopped by a reroot.

            I mean I would expect them to start again though. What pfSense version are you running?

                  Yes, I should have include I have Airvpn configured and using all three available connections as a Gateway Group along with balancing, so it takes a moment or two to get going...
