Traffic gets dropped on LAN port
-
Hello
I am new to pfSense but so far enjoying what my SG 1000 can do.
I use pfSense as a desktop firewall at home. I noticed that after some time I lost connection to Internet. Unplugging and plugging the LAN port where the desktop is connected fixes the issue, although the problem arises again after some time
Is this a bug or have you seen this before? I am running the latest OS version, running a VPN tunnel (openbgpd on top) to a cloud provider, but nothing else -
Ok, so what is actually lost when you lose connectivity? can you still ping the LAN IP?
If you connect to the serial console can you ping out from the SG-1000 either to a LAN IP or a public WAN IP?
When you disconnect and reconnect the LAN cable a lot of processes are triggered. It would be good to try to narrow that down. Try re-saving the LAN settings from the console for example or running:
ifconfig cpsw1 down; ifconfig cpsw1 upDo either of those restore connectivity?
Are you routing all your traffic over the VPN?

thanks for the reply. I was losing all network traffic, internet and traffic going to an IPSEC tunnel to another location
I am running OpenBGPD to have BGP on top of my IPSEC
I managed to fix the problem upgrading to latest 2.4.3 p1
Seems to be stable since then
