      Hi All,

      After updating our firewall to version 2.3.2 WAN interface is dropping connections sometimes, only a reboot is solving the issue. This happens at irregular times and never happened before the upgrade to 2.3.2.

      Below are the logs, if others have a solution for this issue, please let me know. If more information is needed I'm more than happy to give that, hopefully we can solve this issue.

      In the logs we see the firewall starting with check_reload, then a couple xinetd messages, afterwards a repeating set of logs starting with a watchdog timeout:
