        Going to need a bit more info if want any sort of help.  What is changing exactly and what is being disconnected.  When a gateway goes down all states can get reset if you don't tell pfsense not to do that, etc.

          Thank you for your supports.

          I have 3 LAN networks(192.168.2.0/24, 192.168.5.0/24, 192.168.12.0/24), 1 Wan network, 1 DMZ network(172.20../24) on pfsense 2.4.2-r-p1

          I have momentarily disconnected all LAN & DMZ networks at same time if i have changed and saved firewall rule set for one of netowrks

          Please kindly advise me.

          Thank you.

            Post a screenshot of the rules you are talking about so we can see what you mean.  I'm still unclear.  Of course, if you delete the Default allow LAN to any rule on LAN then you will not be able to access anything from LAN.

              I change rules all the time.. I have multiple networks.. Nothing gets disconnected when changing rules.

              Here I got a ping going to IP on a different segment, from my lan 192.168.9/24 to dmz 192.168.3..

              I then created a new lan rule, applied, then move the rule up from the bottom and saved.. As you can see not 1 ping was lost.

              Show us what sort of rule your changing, editing or deleting, etc.

                  You showed just one rule.
                  Show all rules.

                    The attachments are all rules for DMZ network.

                      All rules have identical states counter and passed the same number of bytes.
                      Very strange.

                        Yeah something is broken there - there is no possible way that all those rules would have the same numbers on their states and passed info.

                        That is a shitton of active states as well over 6,000 active states?

                          Thank you for your helps again.

                          I have migrated firewall from Pfsense 1.2.3-RC1  to Pfsense 2.4.2-release-p1

                          After migrated all setting, I have momentarily disconnected all LAN & DMZ networks at same time if i have changed and saved any firewall rule set from any networks.

                          For instance, I have added and saved 1 rule, updated NAT, saved something from any network, and then LAN & DMZ networks were disconnected momentarily.

                          Please kindly advise me.

                          Thank you.

                            Well unless pFsense keeps the changes in a buffer and don't apply them until the next reboot of the services, I would had assume stop-car-to-change-tire may sometimes be necessary and normal?

                              Notice no loss, i then stop the ping so the state can go away and try and ping again and you see the rule kick in and block it..  So yet again going to ask you what is disconnecting?  Be asking that since you started this thread and have yet show any sort of example or explain what is being disconnected.
