      @m4rek11 After applying the patches, I did not notice that the routers changed the roles of Master-> Backup, Backup-> Master.
      All the problems went with those when I made any changes to the rules, dns or DHCP.

      I found my configuration error early. For unknown reason, for 2 different networks I sent the same vhid for Virtual IP. But the problems were still there. After applying the patches, the problem was gone.

      My pfSense box w HA:
      Master: HP DL360G8 1x E5-2670, 64GB ECC RAM, 8x NIC (17x VLan)
      Slave: HP DL360G5, 2x E5410, 64GB ECC RAM, 6x NIC (17x VLan)
