      Dear All,

      We are using the 2.3.5-RELEASE version of Pfsense from last 2 years and everything was working fine. But last few days we are facing some issues with Pfsense firewall. when we open any Microsoft URL then unable to open Microsoft URLs.
      Eg. - https://products.office.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/free

      Please check and provide the solution for this issue asap.

          That looks like the css didn't load.. Did you turn on Query Name Minimization, or Strict Query Name Minimization in unbound advanced.

          There are many MS fqdn that have issues resolving when you using Query Name Minimization in unbound.

          And btw 2.3.5 is EOL and no longer supported.. You need to move to 2.4 as this is the current stable and support line.. Well over 1 year notice that 2.3.x was going to be dropped.. I think actually 2+ years notice..

            With the wealth of detail you have provided about your configuration, it should be simple for anyone to figure it out.

                  Hi johnpoz,
