      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

            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.

                        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
