      I encounter a strange behaviour. One of my ten HAproxy frontends doesn't kick in from some internal ip addresses. Instead the pfsense web interface pops up. If I reload the web page, one time out of five I have a long response time and the HAproxy page loads finally.

      There are no specific rules for these ip addresses and I don't have a clue where to start solving this error.

      Any suggestions welcome.

        Best overall advice is probably to move the pfSense-webinterface to a different port than the default :80 (disable webconfig redirect) / :443 (configure a different port). That way even if haproxy stops for some reason people wont 'by mistake' connect to the webgui.. Other than that check for nat portforward rules perhaps that might take these specific requests?
