      Hey Guys,

      i run a pfsense 2.6.0 since month on a HPE DL360 Gen8 Box, configuration is a Single CPU, 8G Ram on the buildin Raid Controller on a Raid1 200GB SSD Disk.
      After some month pfsense detect a crash. I copy the Crashinfo here and detach the info files.... If anyone find some Information please let me know.
      I use MultiWAN untill last Month, now i only use Single WAN.

        What did you change in your network before?

        It seems, two IPs are toggling between different interfaces:

        <6>arp: 192.168.1.4 moved from 3c:a8:2a:fd:ae:00 to 3c:a8:2a:fd:ae:08 on oce0
        <6>arp: 192.168.1.6 moved from 3c:a8:2a:ff:f0:d8 to 3c:a8:2a:ff:f0:d0 on oce0
        
        

        pfSense doesn't like this.

          Hi,

          this are a proxmox Box, i dont know what they doing... All logs are flooded with this type of messages. This can be the reason for the crash? All other FreeBSD Boxes still live with that message.

          greeting ré

            Yes.
            Why are they toggling between MACs? That's for sure not a normal behavior.

            Most reason for this is that the concerned IP is assigned to two network interfaces.

              ARP movements like that should not cause a kernel panic.

              Crashes like that in the emulex driver though are a known problem. For example this is very similar: https://forum.netgate.com/post/1012487

              I would bet if you change the NICs out it will run fine. Even with the ARP movement.
