      My firewall started randomly crashing every 12-24 hours this past week, can't figure out what's causing it. I have attached the crash logs.textdump.1.txt textdump.0.txt info.1.txt info.0.txt

        Nothing immediately obvious there.

        It was running for some time before that without an issue on 22.05?

        Anything happen that might have precipitated it? Some config change?

          "page fault"

          Likely hardware failure.

          PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
          i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
          UniFi AC-Lite access point

          I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

            I would bet it's software to be honest. The crashes are nearly identical. If it was a hardware issue, like RAM, they would be far more random.

              Ya it just randomly started happening, haven't updated any packages or made any configuration changes.

                Hmm, it seems like something must have changed that is now consistently triggering it. That might be something external.
