      I have a pfsense with following settings.

      em0 –- LAN --- 10.1.100.230 /24

      em1 --- WAN --- 64.209.109.X /30    STATIC            DISABLE THE USERLAND,   BLOCK PRIVATE NETWORKS,    BOLCK BOOGON NETWORKS

      em2 --- DMZ --- 208.49.94.X /25      STATIC

      There are three active rules under WAN (BLOCK PRIVATE NETWORKS, BLOCK BOGON NETWORKS, ALLOW ICMP TO DMZ FROM ANY)
      There is one active rule under LAN      (allow all from lan to wan)
      There is one active rule under DMZ     (allow all from any to any)

      When I click on STATUS -- INTERFACES  I receive this error message

      Fatal error: Allowed memory size  bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 68 bytes) in /etc/inc/pfsense-utils.inc on line 3658

      Please help

        How much memory do you have in the box, and what packages do you have installed?

          Thanks for your reply.  This is what I have

          MEMORY

          **[/var/log]cat dmesg.boot | grep memory

          real memory  = 1072562176 (1022 MB)

          avail memory = 1035730944 (987 MB)

          **PROCESSOR  **  
          [/var/log]sysctl -a | egrep -i 'hw.machine|hw.model|hw.ncpu'
          hw.machine: i386
          hw.model: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz
          hw.ncpu: 2
          hw.machine_arch: i386
          [/var/log]

          PACKAGES

          bsdinstaller-2.0.2009.0422 BSD Installer mega-package
          grub-0.97_1         GRand Unified Bootloader
          iperf-2.0.4         A tool to measure maximum TCP and UDP bandwidth
          libosip-3.1.0       A low layer of SIP implementation
          openbgpd-4.0        Free implementation of the Border Gateway Protocol, Version
          siproxd-0.7.0_1     A proxy/masquerading daemon for the SIP protocol
          zabbix-agent-1.4.5,2 Application and network monitoring solution

          Thank you for your help. Finally I have gotten rid of that stupid FATAL ERROR MESSAGE.  All I had to do was to edit /etc/inc/config.inc and change the 32M to 256M now it is working the way it is suppose to.**
