      Do you have the bacltrace? Full crash report? You can upload it to the same NextCloud link above.

          The message buffer is spammed with ARP movement logs. If that is expected from something you should consider disabling those logs. It may be hiding other useful entries:
          https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/logs-arp-moved.html

          That backtrace looks identical though so that looks like a software bug at this point.

          What interfaces do you have? That error is something trying to listen on IPv6 and hitting something unexpected.

            I had another Crash before an hour, with tailscale too.

            That are my interfaces, none of them has ipv6 configured.

            PS: I have uploaded the logs again if you need them, but i think they are identical.

              Yup same crash but at least here it happened soon enough the message buffer still has useful data in it.

              So I can see that you're running virtualised with vtnet NICs, a bunch of VLANs, and a PPPoE interface.

              One of those things probably has something unusual about the v6 linklocal address. Can you send me the output of: ifcnbfig -vma to the nc folder?

                  Ok two things:
                  Your tailscale interface has a valid IPv6 address which is probably why the error is happening there.

                  But more likely you somehow have a lagg interface that doesn't have any member interfaces. I'm not sure how you might have that. Did you have a lagg configured previously? Is there any lagg config left over?

                    The LAGG is from my pfsense box, i use the vm at the moment to check if i have a hardware problem.

                    Disable IPV6 on Tailscale is not possible, should i then enable ipv6 on the pfsense again?

                      Nope there should be no problem having IPv6 only on tailscale.

                      More likely it's trying to listen on all interfaces including lagg0 but lagg0 is invalid. Remove the lagg entirely.

                            Pretty much identical backtrace:

                            Message buffer is still spammed by arp movement logs hiding anything that might be useful. You should really think about just disabling that logging if those MACs are known:
                            https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/logs-arp-moved.html

                            Can you upload the ifconfig output from that hardware?

                              I dont understand exactaly where i can disable the settings for that and why i have that messages.

                              EDIT: Got it dont read the last line of the URL.

                                Hmm pretty much as before then. The only anomaly there is that one link in the lagg is not participating/active:

                                        laggport: igc0 flags=8<COLLECTING> state=1f<ACTIVITY,TIMEOUT,AGGREGATION,SYNC,COLLECTING>
                                                [(8000,7C-2B-E1-13-62-5B,01E6,8000,0001),
                                                 (FFFF,74-4D-28-07-F0-08,0007,00FF,0004)]

                                  @stephenw10 I know that, i think the cable is broken. I have now set from SpeedShift to PowerD and since that no more crashes. Before the setting and the first crash in the morning i have a crash every hour.

                                    Huh, well that's..... unexpected! There was some speculation that it could be a race condition between multiple processes accessing the same socket. Changing the CPU frequency could affect that.

                                      Good morning,

                                      i had another Crash in the morning now with powerd, then thats not the resolution for the crashes. I uploaded the logs bug i think the crash report is the same.

                                        Yes identical crash.

                                        What's connected to igc0? It flapping a lot:

                                          That's one of the LAGG ports. I have disabled the port for the moment.

                                            Hmm, I can find no way of disabling IPv6 as a source address in tailscale.

                                            One thing you could try is disabling IPv6 link-local addresses on the interface. Of course that breaks IPv6 if you need it. It also doesn't disable it on localhost so tailscale can still try to bind to that.
