      hello,

      DNS Resolver (unbound) stop ans restart a lot of times causing web connection problem when accessing internet during restart.
      info: service stopped (unbound 1.13.2).

      It began with Firmware 21.05 and continue with latest 22.01 (PFsense+ on Netgate SG-3100).

      My Netgate comes with V22 and it was Ok.

      Thank for your comment

      Emmanuel

        @kiwi91 if your are registering dhcp this has been a known issue for a log time.

        AFAIK the only real current work around to unbound restarting because of dhcp leases being issued or renewed is not to register dhcp leases.

        You can drastically reduce how often it restarts by increasing the lease time of your dhcp clients so that they do not renew as often.. But if you have enough clients they will renew and you will see restarts of unbound because of this.

        Unbound has been up for 17 some hours on mine without a restart.. Since I only register dhcp static reservations.

        [22.01-RELEASE][admin@sg4860.local.lan]/root: unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf status
        version: 1.13.2
        verbosity: 1
        threads: 4
        modules: 2 [ validator iterator ]
        uptime: 61984 seconds
        options: control(ssl)
        unbound (pid 58815) is running...

          About 20 stop/restart in one hour.
