      I set
      net.link.bridge.pfil_member Packet filter on the member interface 0
      net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge Packet filter on the bridge interface 0

      but when I am in the txt console, I type sysctl command and found the
      net.link.bridge.pfil_member=1
      net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge =0

      and I use sysctl command to set
      net.link.bridge.pfil_member=0
      net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge =1

      but in the system tunables of webGUI, it still show
      net.link.bridge.pfil_member Packet filter on the member interface 0
      net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge Packet filter on the bridge interface 0

      is it a bug?

        @really2002 Might seems that it's foolish to ask; however, did you SAVE after editing?

          The system tunables table in the GUI does not reflect the current state of those sysctls and is not intended to. It is the equivalent of the sysctl.conf file in FreeBSD. What you have listed there will be set at boot or when you apply a change to it.

            if i found this problem, why do you think I will miss save after edit?
            e
            and in my description, I change it in console by command sysctl, and in the system tunables , it sill no changed.

            oh, btw, I use esxi virtual machine to install the pfsense.

              Just to make sure or double sure.

              See what Steve says above.

                Yeah, it's not expected to change in the GUI. That is a list of sysctls to set at boot. Not their current status.
