      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.

              Hi,

              i changed back to my primary hardware last week. Now i got my first crash.

                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?

                  @stephenw10 Files is uploaded.
                  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:

                            <6>igc0: link state changed to DOWN
                            <6>igc0: link state changed to UP
                            <6>igc0: link state changed to DOWN
                            <6>igc0: link state changed to UP
                            <6>igc0: link state changed to DOWN
                            <6>igc0: link state changed to UP
                            <6>igc0: link state changed to DOWN
                            <6>igc0: link state changed to UP

                              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.

                                    Same backtrace?

                                    Are you able to test disabling link-local IPv6 addresses?

                                        So, yes, it's identical.

                                        You have to add a loader value so run:
                                        echo net.inet6.ip6.auto_linklocal=0 >> /boot/loader.conf.local

                                        Then reboot.

                                        Then check the output from ifconfig again. You should find no link-local IPv6 addresses. Only the tailscale interface itself should have any IPv6 address.

                                          Hey guys, I know this is quite an old topic, but I may have experienced the same crash due to a tailscaled process on my PfSense. Were there any resolutions to this issue? I can share a backtrace of the crash if that would help, but from a brief comparison of others here, it seems that it is the same issue.

                                            Identical backtrace?

                                            https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15503

                                            Do you have something listening on IPv6 that doesn't have to?
