      The new hardware will have a new NDI, it doesn't matter what image you put onto it.

      The ACB will be retained if it's a recent. That key is stored locally so will be copied onto the new device.

      @sergei_shablovsky said in URGENT - Restoring 2.6.0-Dev after accidentally(!) parts of pfSense deleted:

      Thank You for Idea, I'l try to ask USB-drive on a reception of hotel, and may be possible to download pfSense install image and make bootable pfSense USB...

      Problem SOLVED: successfully restored system by choose Restore from existed config when installing from local USB-drive. Only few additional .pkg added manually.
      (I forgot to say, that WANs are locked to NICs MACs, so at night ISP support team not able to make corrections, so I cannot able even to connect local notebook in office.)

      For Your smile at the end of week:
      In cafe near the hotel, I buy coffee and 2 x really BIG (and very tasty) apple tart. For that, one girl from café stuff give me ability to download pfSense and create bootable USB-drive on her notebook ;) So, all are happy: office working, and I go to complete my morning tasty apple tart, I have phone num of pretty girl from cafe, tied, happy and go to sleep ;)

      In my case I imported the OpenVPN configuration which defined an interface. I had previously defined and deleted a physical interface which I had configured DHCP. The 2 aligned to the same name, OPT3. This may be an uncommon result.

      After spending time on this that I'd rather have back, I found that the root cause could have been any one or all of the widgets on the dashboard. After removing all the widgets on the source host and then redeploying the "All" configuration on the new host, the issue went away. The crash seemed to be triggered by clicking any link on the UI while the dashboard was present.

      i've solved the problem. its very similar to bridge behavior i encountered in another installation. I only have vlans defined for my LAGG. once i created another interface that would be untagged on the LAGG, it picked up my native vlan as expected. all of the VIPs for the tagged interfaces started working.

      so just for my own curiosity i deleted the native interface i crated and rebooted. everything still works. all in all i must have just jiggled the handle

      Hi jimp,
      some good news here.

      Your statement that "pkg can't reach the pfsense servers" pointed me to the right direction; I haven't understood it fully, but I found a way at least to unlock the pkg issue.

      In my case, it was due to a double stack IPv4/IPv6 issue: to solve it, I had to temporaly disable the network interface linked to the GIF port; removing IPv6 name resolution plus removing the IPv6 default gateway and firewall rules to route IPv6 traffic didn't suffice.

      I don't like to be so inaccurate in test results, but as IPv6 connectivity was actually working, defining this problem will require some more tests and I meant to find a quick workaround for everybody experiencing this kind of issue.

      Let me know if this rings a bell.
