      Hi,

      I'm going crazy with my pfsense
      according to the log a rule "internet access v4" letting through a subnet I don't want to.

      but the rule doesnt exist

      • hovered over all(!) rules to ses the id -> nothing
      • renamed all "internet access v4" rules (unfortunately I did not name them individually for each interface before)
      • deleted(!) all (then renamed) "**_internet access v4"
      • used search in viconfig

      the tracking ID doesn't exist (any more?).
      so i cannot modify or delete it.

      any hints?
      Thank you in advance

          @muab Check https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/firewall.html#new-rules-are-not-applied

          Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
          When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

            made sense, so I tried it, didn't solve the problem, but finally lead me to bump the max table entries under System > Advanced, Firewall/NAT tab which solved the problem.

            Thank yo very much.
