DHCP Leases page doesn't load
-
Has anyone seen this before? It just sits there loading the page and nothing ever loads :( I recently disabled the native dns forwarder and resolver and am using nextdns cli client. That's the only thing I can think which changed recently. Eventually the page just times out.

Should I be posting this in some other place to get support?

This issue has been seen before.
For every lease, a DNS (and reverse ?) request is executed.
The local DNS should know about every device on your network that has asked a lease, as every lease gets integrated into the local DNS cache. That is, as long as it contains a valid host name.
The static MAC leases are also loaded into the local DNS at start.Or, you have stopped all local DNS facilities. All DNS requests are forwarded to ..... some where else = OpenDNS.
OpenDNS doesn't know anything about your local devices, so no useful info gets back.
Still, the reply should come back quickly : "sorry, no info".
The fact DHCP leases page times out implies other DNS issues.I advise you to use the local forwarder, or the local resolver as forwarder, so the local (pfSense) DNS works.
I advise you also to look at the other forum posts handling the same subject, they should be in this forum (DHCP and DNS).
