    At random intervals, my pfSense installation tries to connect to tcp/443 to nrdm.netgate.com (208.123.73.93) ... does anybody know why? Is there a configuration setting to turn it off? Thanks.

      Hi,

      Is it likely that you are on version 2.5 DEV ....?!
      In this case, you can read a few words about it here (this is an integrated management platform)
      https://www.netgate.com/blog/pfsense-2-5-and-aes-ni.html

      it certainly can't be disabled, but why would you do that with a Netgate domain
      it can have some function for sure

      Cats bury it so they can't see it!

        nrdm.netgate.com does not resolv to that ip, at least not for me or for google dns
        ;ANSWER
        nrdm.netgate.com. 1799 IN A 172.27.10.126

        i don't know what that ip is for, maybe it check for update or it come from some additional package, you can use packet capture to see what's going on.
        there is no reason to ask 4 times the same question on different place
        in the meantime i will put my tinfoil hat just to be safe

                nice, so i was right about check for update plus the content of the "services and support" plus copyright stuff
                @Gertjan I think we can safely remove the tinfoil hat this time, no rush but send me back what I lent you

                        @user2 , I think you are overly worried, but then again that's your right. Anyway the IP address that you mentioned is related to these IP addresses:
