      Oh you were seeing the same issue in earlier versions?

      How did you upgrade then if bootup never completes. You installed 2.7.2 clean and restore a config?

        yes. In fact, DHCP is working, but the pfsense startup interface is not completed.

          Ah, Ok. Are you able to connect to the firewall at all then? SSH working?

          Anything shown in the system log?

            I just tried to delete all the "DHCPv6 Static Mappings" setting and restarted the pfsense system just now. The startup interface was completed.

              The LAN ipv4 I mentioned before cannot be routed through the ISP WAN. I haven't found a solution to this problem yet. I have set up static routing to let a lot of ipv4 be routed through the ISP WAN. But it doesn't seem to work.

                What do you have in the v6 static mappings? It seems like something Kea doesn't like.

                If you switch back to ISC DHCPd does it allow those mappings again?

                  ipv6 normal, ipv4 route not normal work.

                    That's what happens if you switch back to ISC?

                      back to ISC DHCP, it ipv4 DHCP not work. Lan pc can't get dhcp ip.

                        Hmm, but it was working before you switched to Kea?

                        The service is running?

                          yes, kea is runing. but i setup Static routing like 117.32.0.0/13 to WAN, other ips via VPN. the LAN's can't route to 117.32.0.0/13 now.

                            So.... not back to ISC?

                            Static routes would be completely unrelated to DHCP though anyway.

                              yes, now it can't back to ISC. I see that the ISC DHCP page has changed and is different from before.

                              Static routes would be completely unrelated to DHCP though anyway.

                              Yes, but this is an urgent problem that needs to be solved. I have tried various methods but cannot solve it.

                                OK I'm confused as to what the actual problem is at this point.

                                You cannot switch dhcp back to ISC for some reason?

                                  The most important thing at present is to solve the ipv4 routing problem.

                                    Ok so what exactly is the routing issue you're seeing? How are you testing?

                                        So there is no default IPv4 route?

                                        The IPv4 gateway is not responding?

                                        What does the routing table look like?
