      By reseting the port link on my switch for my pfSense, I can reproduce this behavior

        @bmeeks I tried a packet capture after stopping the dpinger service, but it didn't change anything.

        I correct myself : on a capture on my pfSense when I have this problem, I only see multicast with IPv4 source address of my pfSense AND MDNS multicast packets (224.0.0.251) from my lan AND multicast leave group from my lan (but not multicast join group)

          what would that have to do with anything - dpinger is what checks to see if your gateway is online via pinging it.

            @johnpoz I though this would stop IDS/IPS service as said above

              It won't. dpinger has no relationship to IDS/IPS.

                I don't really know what you mean by IDS/IPS. If it's in relation to snort or suricata, i do not have those packet installed
                I have wireguard, avahi, openvpn (and arping, iperf)

                  If you do not have Snort or Suricata installed, then forget all the remarks about IDS/IPS. They are not relevant without one of those packages installed and running.

                    @maximushugus, you should start with this suggestion:

                    When troubleshooting where trying to validate traffic gets to where it is suppose to go and there is a lag at the endpoint, we have always turned down all but one interface in the lag

                      To update the topic : for the moment I'm not able to do testing disabling lag because of my configuration.
                      But I reinstalled pfSense 2.7.0 reimporting the exact same configuration, and my multicast is working again.
                      I suspect a bug in the igmpproxy program in pfSense 2.7.2 (or pfSense 2.7.1 but I never tried this version)
                      Maybe it is related with this : https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15043

                        It could be that. Those fixes are in 24.03.

                          I tried to transfer the igmpproxy binary from working 2.7.0 pfSense to 2.7.2.
                          But it looks like the binary is exactly the same...

                          To resume : if I restart my pfSense interfaces and launch igmpproxy, the first multicast stream I ask is working. But as soon as I leave this first asked multicast stream, it is not working anymore, and if I do a packet capture, I do not see any multicast packets exept those with IPv4 source address of my pfSense AND MDNS multicast packets (224.0.0.251) from my lan AND multicast leave group from my lan (but not multicast join group).

                          I managed to get igmpproxy logs from working state to not working (by restarting interfaces from my switch and lauching igmpproxy after reconnecting). On this log I put "****************" when I left the stream on my PC :

                          igmpproxy -n -d -vv /etc/igmpproxy.conf
                          Searching for config file at '/etc/igmpproxy.conf'

                          So as you can see, after leaving the stream, it is not receiving any join group anymore (even if I try to join this multicast stream again on my PC).

                          Because the igmpproxy binary was not changed, I think this is a kernel/pfSense issue with rule/state/filter table between 2.7.0 and 2.7.2,

                          What do you think about it ?
                          Thanks

                            Also if it can help, here is netstat -g results at different moment during the problem :

                            Before lauching igmpproxy :

                            netstat -g
                            
                            IPv4 Virtual Interface Table is empty

                              Just to update, I still have the problem.
                              But I installed and properly configured PIMD, disabling IGMP proxy.

                              With this configuration I have the exact same problem : I only see multicast with IPv4 source of my pfSense, and MDNS, (224.0.0.251) from my lan and multicast leave group but not multicast join group from my lan.

                              So I this the problem is in pfSense itself and not in IGMPproxy nor PIMD

                              Also if from a PC on my lan I ping a multicast 224.0.0.2, I can see this on a capture on pfSense.

                              That's really weird

                                I found I have the same problem as discribed here

                                I have the same configuration with a LAGG of ixl0 and ixl1
                                I suspect this is the problem.
                                I get a lot of those errors

                                pfSense kernel: ixl1: Disabled multicast promiscuous mode
                                

                                when enabling or disabling any multicast program (avahi, igmpproxy or pimd), even if I disable every program

                                  Ok I think I found the problem : it looks as a freebsd kernel bug with Intel x710 NIC.

                                  Here is the same problem in OPNsense : link

                                  Here is the Github OPNsense problem : link

                                  In OPNsense by reverting this freebsd commit it resolve the problem (see here)

                                  Can someone open an issue for next pfsense ?
                                  Does someone have skills to compile a pfsense kernel without the faulty commit ?

                                  Thanks ?

                                    Hmm, surprised you can't disable that kind of hardware offloading.🤔

                                    Since it can only handle 128 addresses and has a mode where it stops filtering in hardware when it goes above that anyway.....

                                      Seems to be setup with vlan hw filtering. Did you try disabling that?

                                      Like: ifconfig ixl0 -vlanhwfilter

                                        @stephenw10 It looks as if I cannot disable vlan hw filtering because if I run this command the interface doesn't go up anymore until I restart

                                            Hmm, that's odd. Are you using VLANs on that? Do they all fail if so?
