Port Forwarding stopped working after upgrading to 2.8.0
-
That's not a NIC issue, you'd see everything fail if it was. Sounds more like a routing issue or possible something stalling out PHP.
Check the system logs covering the time it happened.

@stephenw10
sorry delay wasnt around
so what do i check from the system logs? i also gotten this error now a few times but when you try to view it it doesnt work,,, and it worked oncebut what i found is say my security cameras on 192.168.10.0 network the shinobi can see the camera but my desktop pc using the reolink on the 192.168.0.0 it looses the cameras in the reolink camera like when you typically reboot pfsense...
and then it comes back or if not i reboot pfsense and then its working again.. is that all routing issues?so when i go into system logs what am i looking for? what should i scan... and here is the error i get a few times now
would these errors be caused by a routing error? this stuff only been happening after i upgraded to 2.8.0 is there like an extra check box that might been checked after the upgrade ? that i need to toggle off etc.. but ya what do i look for in the system logs specificlly to my desktop pc
i also find if my internet stalls out it stalls out my vpn and my internet will still basiclly work on the WAN side but vpn doesnt i need to reboot pfsense to get internet on vpn side to work again its like it stalls out and then rebooting pfsense solves it... as i can ping like 1.1.1.1 but i cant ping google.ca unless i reboot pfsense but if i ping google.ca on the pfsense box then i can typically ping google.. but not to the desktop
is that also related to routing issue you think i might have
-
Mmm, if you can hit the login page but nothing beyond it that's almost always PHP stalling or being killed. That is usually a symptom of something else trying to make it do something it shouldn't or can't.
So I would be looking at the main system log leading up the failure to see what might be happening to load up PHP.

@stephenw10
ya so like majority of the time it will just sit there you cant click the crash reporter link i had that open and i rebooted the pfsense and i was able to click that page later the crash reporter shows nothingoh and i remember i also have issues
from the desktop pc
i not able to ssh into the pfsense or when the gui page like stalls out i can ssh in and reboot or sometimes i cant and i use a wifi plug on the pfsense to reboot.. also i noticed sometimes when i reboot normal of pfsense it never comes back up i dont currently have a monitor hooked to it.. but to get it to boot back up i toggle the wifi plug and then it boots back up again.. as after a normal reboot and it doesnt come back up within 5 min is an issuenow another thing i remember is if i cant ssh into the pfsense box from my desktop.. i can terminal into my Unraid Server and i can ssh to the pfsense fine.. and if i ssh from the desktop when its not working it will work again after a certain amount of time it just starts working
now i googled what the minum specs for pfsense 2.8.0 and saying needs a quad core with 2ghz.. now my cpu is a Intel(R) Celeron(R) J4105 CPU @ 1.50GHz 4 Core i was thinking of just upgrading my server and give my pfsense my AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core with an asus tuf x570 motherboard
as you mentioned the php is stalling out if its underpowered now from the upgradei did try a re upgrade of pfsense using hte config file but that didnt help..
so what kills or stalls the php is that happening on the desktop or is that happening on the pfsense of a combination of both..
so when i looking in the system log i dont have a php sub tab so how do i look for the php or what am i exactly looking for as i not 100% sure what to look
and do i do anything under the states or routes under the diagnostic page
is there like a diagnostic tool to test the pfsense also? and if the windows 11 desktop php stalling out how do i go about that too..
all i know is if i do a pfsense reboot it solves the problem for a while but the issues can re occur after an hour or several hours or a day or 2.. so its not specific set
-
Hmm, SSH should still work even if PHP is not responding so that could also just be a symptom.
But after you reboot and regain access to the firewall the system logs should contain some reference to what was happening at the time.
Are you able to connect to the firewall console directly when this is happening?
If there's an issue with the boot drive it might present like this is be unable to log anything. The console would be full of errors though if that happened.
-
ill have to get a monitor on the computer then so i can check when it fails to boot.. does pfsense able to show any like s.m.a.r.t errors if there is any so you can see if there is a problem? and can i run a like ssh shell command to run a diagnostic on the ssd to see if there is an error does pfsense offer that?
as for if i can connect to the firewall directly when its glitching... as of the ssh its been a mix so sometimes yes or sometimes no and it takes a bit before it allows me to ssh in it just sits at trying to connect for a long time it will either drop out after so long and you try again sometimes works next sometimes no... and sometimes it will ssh like for a minute before it prompts the login and i do
ssh admin@192.168.0.1now in the system logs whjere would i look for errors but wouldnt the errors be gone once you reboot it.. it just starts off fresh? or does it keep logs prior to the reboot..
-
i just seen a s.m.a.r.t under diagnostics my bad dislexia missed it... ill do those tests and report back too
-
so i ran the test and the results are

so dunno if it helps anything for boot up it showed 0 errors and such on when it struggles to reboot
-
Mmm, that seems fine.
So I'd look at the logs for the time. Including if there is a suspicious gap in the logs at that point.
-
@stephenw10
ah ok
so in the logs id just look for a gap in time then and i guess any of the sub headings... ill keep an eye out when it happens and report back ..is my current cpu under powered would that be an issue.. and ill hook up a monitor tonight so i can see any console issues especcially when it fails to reboot
does the system logs show stuff prior to a reboot when i reboot .. like does it save or is it all reset at the reboot..
and its definitely not the 10gtek card? as i know i switched to it as you guys on here mentioned dont use the realtek cards not supported..
always something lol but ill keep an eye out when it happens again
-
I would normally expect to see the logs continue and be filled with restarting processes or errors or similar. But a gap in the logs entirely would also be a clue since it implies it either could not log or logs were lost if you're running ram disks for example.
-
@stephenw10
i dont think i running a ram disk i guess thats like a c drive or d drive but in ram?so i was looking at the logs and my desktop is slugish and it cant work homedepot website right it only partially loads websites or it will give me error that something went wrong... can that also be the pfsense acting up giving me issues? i also have a my vpn fail over issue or so could it be causing trouble? i have a vpn fail over i have one for canada 1 for usa but i disabled the one because everytime i try to do something in canada i get this stupid geo location garbage so i disabled the usa one.. as if i just run canada its fine for certain things if i have usa and canada then it gives me issues with geo location...
but here is the logs anyways
and i still have a 3mbs internet connction where i live they still burry lines for rural country folks and maybe by end of year i can get 1gb which i guess is like 1000 or 8000mbsbut can you see in the logs its just acting like crap
and do you think the current comp i have even though below the minium i googled is still ok?Community Edition System Interfaces Firewall Services VPN Status Diagnostics Help StatusSystem LogsSystemGeneral System Firewall DHCP Authentication IPsec PPP PPPoE/L2TP Server OpenVPN NTP Packages Settings General Gateways Routing DNS Resolver Wireless GUI Service OS Boot Last 500 General Log Entries.

ok i not able to post my logs right
here is my one drive and i posted it in a text file
log fileand what also drives me crazy is if i google and i goto a link i get this stupid googleservices and it wont let me goto the damn link is there anything in pfsense can fix that problem
constant bs i tell yahere is a screen shot for the vpn gateway fail over
so i used to have both to tier 1 in the past but i watched another video they said
you do Tier 1 and Tier 2 so you have the usa first and if it fails it moves to 2nd one..i also enabled the interface for new york vpn but i still get those gateway errors... do you think its killing the php stalling it from all those errors of the tier 1 no gateway?
as i made this this way so i can switch back and forth from usa to canada if needed but mostly stick on the canada one
-
The logs look like you're seeing packet loss on the PPPoE WAN and then obviously seeing similar loss on all the VPNs that are over the WAN.
That in turn is triggering other processes for each gateway event.The first thing I would do there is set an external monitoring IP on the WAN so you're not reliant on the ISP gateway responding to pings.
Are you routing all traffic via that VPN gateway group?
-
so i have my network split so some IPs go out the VPN and others go out the WAN
so the WAN has a built in monitor IP the 2 vpns i set the monitor ips from setups setting up PIA
and what does the monitor IP actually do?
and what ip should i set it?so you mentioned to change the monitor ip from the isp whats the purpose of that.. for like when i mention it seems to stall out and then i can sometimes ping 1.1.1.1 but i cant ping google.ca or any dns name just ip address..
and here is the screen shot
-
and i dont know why the one vpn says dynamic both should say dynamic in the settings but one replaces the dynamic with an ip
-
@stephenw10
i added some new logsi set the Wan monitor to 1.0.0.1 i couldnt set it to 1.1.1.1 and i lost interent nothing worked.. i could ping 1.1.1.1 from the desktop but i couldnt ping google.ca
i had to reboot pfsense
so i got a log of the wan monitor ip 1.0.0.1 and one after i rebooted same link as i sent ya
-
The gateway monitoring serves two purposes. It generates data for the WAN quality logging in Status > Monitoring so you can see how your WAN varies over time. It is used to detect a connection that has failed (depending how that is defined) so in a gateway group it can be added or removed; like you have with the VPN group.
Since you only have one real WAN you don't need a failover action with that so you could set
Disable Gateway Monitoring Action
on that. That way it won't trigger unnecessary service starts when there is packet loss on it. You need that action on the VPN gateways in order to failover between them but you could set the thresholds higher so 20% packet loss doesn't trigger it if you regularly see that.The NY VPN shows as 'dynamic' because it's not connected. That gateway IP is pushed by the server when it connects.
1.0.0.1 should be valid as a monitoring IP, I would expect that to work fine normally.
How do you have DNS configured? Is it setup to only use the VPN gateways for example? That would explain why you could ping an IP but not resolve anything if the VPN is reconnecting.
Also when you set those monitoring IPs pfSense adds a static route to them via the gateway they're on. So when testing connectivity from a LAN side client you should avoid any of those IPs in order to not get static routed via that.

ok so
1.. i added 2 more logs from last night where it was locking up my desktop to pfsense or internet and seems to be that fail over2... i set the 1.0.0.1 for the wan at the moment and i can try that 20% threshold
3.. i enabled the 2nd vpn for fail over to see if it locks up
3.. i must have a Routing issues on my Desktop i use like 192.168.0.49 for No VPN and 192.168.0.151 to be on the VPN as i have it split vpn and no vpn ips... and i got vlans
now what i mentioned before on my desktop if i try to search on Homedepot.ca and i get error from there site saying something went wrong... now i can test on my ubuntu VM on my dmz vlan 192.168.40.x which uses WAN and it can search fine... so then i went and tested on my laptop i connect to my LAN and search same item on home depot and i get that same error something went wrong... but if i connect laptop which running windows 11 like the desktop then the search works fine... as i thought maybe its a windows 11 vs ubuntu issue but it wasnt
as for DNS this is what i got setup but i dunno if its the Routing Bypass Policy causing the issue?
but here is what i got
and the 103.x.x.x DNS thats i still got in there from nordvpn i can delete those i guess i didnt yet
so i thinking i got couple issues that routing you meentioned that could be killing php or i thinking comp not powerful enough and its just stalling out
but cpu usage at moment is just 7%but here is some screen shots maybe i configured things wrong
and i wish on the DNS page you could set like 1.1.1.1 for WAN interface but then keeps VPN and WAN seperate so there is no vpn leakage but it doesnt work that way.. i do have a no wan egreess toobut here is my screen shots. you probably see something i configured wrong
![pfsense 8.png]
(/assets/uploads/files/1752588584425-pfsense-8.png)oh so when i have 1.1.1.1 1.0.0.1 monitoring ips dont test those ips for pining ping some other ip as it always knows that route there so gives a false postivie i take it
-
i going to try tommorow or later tonight i going to use one of my backup servers with a amd 3700x i think
i going to install pfsense on a ssd and import the current config and then set it to the 2 nics i got in there and test it,. to see if it locks me out too like i been experiencing in case my 1.5 4 core cpu isnt powerful anymore
