      @JonathanLee what pfSense version are you using? I mean to remember that this was an issue a quite while back.

      Checking with 2.8.0, if I for example set MaxRtrAdvInterval to 900 then AdvDNSSLLifetime is automagically set to 3*MaxRtrAdvInterval = 2700:

      [2.8.0-RELEASE][root@pfSense.home.arpa]/root: cat /var/etc/radvd.conf 
      # Automatically Generated, do not edit
      # Generated config for dhcp6 delegation from wan on lan
      interface em1 {
              ...
              MinRtrAdvInterval 300;
              MaxRtrAdvInterval 900;
             ...
              DNSSL home.arpa {
                      AdvDNSSLLifetime 2700;
              };
      };

          I can't remember right now, you would have to look through the available system patches.
          Maybe I'll remember in a bit.

              It's only a warning. Of course you can try lower the MaxRtrAdvInterval value. If the default value for AdvDNSSLLifetime is also 1800 for that version of radvd, then try setting MaxRtrAdvInterval to a value < 1800/2.

              I don't have a 23.05 running, @stephenw10 has probably a way better brain then me and can rember the fix. Maybe a commit one can reference for a patch.

                      Looking at the patch and a current /etc/inc/services.inc on 2.8.0 I would say there is a good change that this fixes it. It does make sure that MaxRtrAdvInterval is 3*MaxRtrAdvInterval and with that the warning condition should not be met.

                          Oh, bummer. Does the patch apply at all?

                          Btw: what is the actual content of the radvd.conf file, is MaxRtrAdvInterval set at all?

                          Edit: the oldest ZFS snapshot I have on that pfSense+ VM is 23.09.1 and there it seems to be fixed already. Any change you can upgrade to that at all?

                              As the other thread, that patch (link shown above) was based against 'a 4 years old pfSense version' like (can't remember) : 2.3.x ?
                              Your /etc/inc/services.inc is many generation older or .... more recent.

                              No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                              Edit : and where are the logs ??
