          Hmm. Ok. Did you change the IP details in FreeNAS to use the new pfSense address as it's gateway?

          Screenshots would really be great here.  ;)

            Looks fine.
            A screenshot of the FreeNAS network config page would probably be helpful.

            Can you resolve those NTP servers from any other machine on the LAN? Or from the pfSense box?

              The default gateway must be set to the pfSense LAN address, 10.0.1.120. Without that set the FreeNAS box will not have a route to anywhere outside it's own subnet, it can't reach the Google DNS servers at 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.

                You don't need a static route.  Delete that and set your gateway in freenas to the pfsense IP.

                DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

                    Yes, I use FreeNAS and pfSense.

                    Screenshot of what?

                    You keep talking about some static route.  You don't need any static routes so if you have configured one, delete it.

                    Change the gateway in FreeNAS to the LAN IP of pfSense, which I suppose is 10.0.1.120.

                      Dude it seems like there is a language barrier here, and just basic concepts maybe - you don't seem to grasp the concept of what a gateway is or what IPs even do..

                      You change your pfsense to 10.0.1.120, then why do you have freenas default gateway set to 10.0.1.1 ???  Do you not understand what a gateway is?

                        Those are both FreeNAS issues. The first looks like some problem with jails perhaps? It's trying to rename the virtual Ethernet pair and can't for whatever reason. The second issue maybe DNS related. Read this: https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/4027 Have you recently updated FreeNAS?

                        You will probably have more luck on the FreeNAS forum solving those, though many here run FreeNAS.
