Unwanted State reset after applying new Rules

[soulreaver]

Dear Community, i postet this in the German corner, because of my bad English but ive didn't get an Reply, so i will try it in English, sorry for that double Post!
So here is my Problem:
Every time i apply a new rule, all of the active States wil be reset.
This is a Problem for me, because if i make Changes on my FW Box while anybody is on the Phone, or in an RDP Session the Connection drops.

If it is necessary i like to reset the states by hand, is there any Switch to change this behavior?

I got an 2nd PfSense Box, if i apply new rules on this box they become active only to new states.
This is the behavior it should be as iam understood the documentation correctly.

Thanks for your Replys!

Do you have 'State Killing on Gateway Failure' or 'Reset all states if WAN IP Address changes' set?

Those are settings in System > Advanced.

Sorry for my late reply, iam verry busy at the moment...
"State Killing on Gateway Failure" is activated, the other is disabled.

Should i disable "State Killing on Gateway Failure" ?

Thanks a lot!!

I thinkl disabling "State Killing on Gateway Failure" did it!
Ive tried it on my testbox, if enabled a small rule change drops active connections.
If disabled it works as expected.

I will try it this evening on my main PFSense and report the results!

Thanks a lot!!!

No problem. Let us know if that doesn't help.
