      I have an APU2B2 fw(160311) running 2.4B (20161231) fine.
      And/but I use dpinger settings relaxed, Probe I=1500; Loss I=7500; Alert I=3000.

        That only indicates it was the active process at the time, it doesn't mean dpinger caused the crash.

        We can't tell anything from only the panic message. We need the backtrace and other parts of the crash dump.

          no probs, here you go. I did submit these via the auto up-loader as I thought it might help.

          Be good to get some feedback/advice as I don't really want to roll back at the moment unless this is related to  the hardware.

          Many thanks

            Seems familiar but I'm not finding anything on it right away. It's close to https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4689 but not quite the same.

            And there aren't any notable errors in the message buffer from the crash either, just the panic message.

                    No not yet but thats the first job this weekend. Then if thats ok I might roll back to 2.32 just to see if it crashes  again as supplier wont change unless on 2.32.  :(

                      for reference I have had no more panic's I do now have my igb set to only use one queue tho.

                      if you want to see if reducing igb queues stabilises your box then add this line to /boot/loader.conf.local and reboot

                      hw.igb.num_queues=1
                      

                      odd supplier trusts 2.3 but not 2.4 as neither is a stable version.

                        Thanks. Might try this at some point.

                        8 hour ram test - 3 full passes with no errors so time to rebuild as 2.3.2 as requested and take it from there.

                          2.3 has been quite stable here on all my boxes. My customers would have fled long ago if it were not the case. But I have not lost one account.

                          2.4 is not to release state yet so any "supplier" would play it safe by avoiding it.

                            Need to specify which 2.3 - 2.3.2-p1 is the stable official release. 2.3.3-DEVELOPMENT is (as it says) a development build, but actually it has all the fixes and many of the "little" new front-end things that are in 2.40-BETA, it is still called DEVELOPMENT because there is no decision yet about if, how or when it may actually become a release for the 2.3.* series. 2.3.3-DEVELOPMENT should not have "underlying" regressions, since it is built on FreeBSD 10.3 that is proven in 2.3.2-p1 (although various ports of underlying stuff have been updated into the 2.3.3-DEVELOPMENT builds).

                              The supplier sent me this message

                              "According to the pfsense download page V2.3.2 is the latest stable version,
                              please use that one.

                                That is correct. The latest full installer is for 2.3.2.
                                After it installs and comes online it will tell you here is n upgrade available to 2.3.2-p1 - you can then upgrade to the "p1".
                                Full installer images for 2.3.2-p1 were not made.

                                  Thanks - as my apu2  unit is serial only will the first link work on serial mode?

                                    2.3.2 is classed as such as it does not have the dev label. 2.3.3 does.  It is weird as My 'live' APU on 2.4 is pretty much a vanilla install with pfblocker being the only addition. O.K. There are one or two patches in there but that's around the area of the launch of dhcp6c for testing.

                                    I would have said I that in SkyECI's case it's the amount of gaming being done by his offspring, but as the last crash was when they should have been asleep that can be ruled out.

                                    I can honestly say I've only ever seen a crash once and that was when I was moving back and forth between 2.3 and 2.4 - it worked a couple of times then fell over. Now I use my test unit for dev work and leave the live unit pretty much alone.

                                      In some ways I hope it crashes at 2.3.2 as well because I'm convinced skyeci has a problem unit

                                      As you say we are both solid on 2.4 and I had zero issues at 2.3.3 before I upgraded
