      Hi guys - I'm in the process of moving from a VM running pfsense 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 on ESXi to a hardware appliance (Qotom box)

      I performed a config backup, and then replaced any interface names accordingly. The IP address of the LAN interface of the new appliance will be different (so I updated that in the config)

      I performed a clean install of 2.5 on the Qotom and tried a config restore. After rebooting I can ping the LAN interface IP address, but the WebUI just times out when attempting to connect.

      I should note that I have HTTPS enabled (with the default self-signed certificate) with a custom webconfigurator port (44300). I set this up due to using the HAProxy package a while back I believe.

      When checking the console I can see that my LAN interface is indeed configured with the right IP.

      Any ideas where I could check in the logs to see what might be causing the issue?

      Cheers
