      Before anything else, upgrade both nodes to the current release, 2.4.3-p1, and then run the tests again.

        Ok, but that will take a while. Due to a high performance environment I have to register and approve a change. Maybe any other tips?

          No other tips. Issue reports against outdated versions are not valid.

            I'm not sure if you're the same person, but I think your issue might have been reported as a bug around 3 months ago, though it hasn't been assigned or triaged by anyone. It would be worth adding your issue if it is indeed the same problem:

            https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/8465

            The bug report specifies that it occurs in an environment where they are using a non-local gateway, which doesn't seem to apply to you. I'm trying to determine if it will affect me after an upgrade to 2.4.3-p1. We're not using a non-local gateway either.

              Hello, Thanks for your reply and the Reminder :)
              I'm not that person, but i found a solution that worked for me.

              1. Upgrade version
              2. The provider was able to change the /30 Network to a /28 Network so i can use Carp and VIP in one Subnet. After this we tested it with no further problems

                Cool, that's enough to tell me it won't affect me. Thanks man.

                  The issue described in this bug report is still present in 2.4.3-p1.

                  https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/8465

                  I have a similar setup and i can reproduce excactly the same problem.

                  but it's not clear whether this issue is specific to using a non-local gateway or not.

                  In my case i use a non-local gateway as well.

                  If that issue occures, i have to go to system-routing edit my default gateway, save the setting without any modification and the connection comes up. Sometimes i have to go to interfaces-wan and save the interface again without modifications to bring the routing up and running again.

                    The real question is: Does it still happen on 2.4.4?

                        I used the integrated auto-update functionality to bring my first box from 2.4.3-p1 to 2.4.4.a.20180803.0952.

                        After the update i got this crash-log. 0_1533339152726_PHP_errors.zip.

                        I was able to delete the log and did not see any issues with the installation (after a quick look).

                        I upgraded the second box from the same version to the same dev-version.

                        After the second box did go down for a reboot, the CARP interfaces where failing over and my internet connection (inbound and outboud) was lost again - until i saved my default gateway again without any modifications to the settings, then the connection came back.

                        After i logged in to the updated second box, i got a crash-log as well 0_1533339758577_PHP_errors (1).zip .

                        After a few tests: Yes, the issue is still present also with 2.4.4.a.20180803.0952.

                          ... and i can confirm this issue is specific to using a non-local gateway.

                            Did somebody see this already and can say something about it?

                              well we solved the problem by this way , first create a script to check if the default route is still exists or no then if does not just add it :)

                              I add a cronjob for this though

                              fixgw.sh :

                              HOSTNAME="$(hostname)"

                              if ! [ $(route -n show 0.0.0.0 | grep gateway | cut -d ":" -f 2 | cut -d " " -f 2) == "10.10.10.1" ]; then route add -net 0.0.0.0/0 10.10.10.1 ; fi

                              fixgw-pf.png

                              fixgw.sh.txt
