I have a 4100, just received with two wan and latest software. Runs flawlessly for several days, then crashes. Nothing in the logs that I can see except sshguard restarting very often (every 10 mins). I have it set to log to a remote syslog server and still 1 week working then crashes. Networking down, internet down.
Has anyone has any similar problems with the resent software 25.01?
-
@feisal Can you leave the console connected to see if something is shown there?
-
Ok
Will monitor on console and post results when a crash occurs. -
What exactly happens when it crashes? Stops responding? Reboots?
-
S stephenw10 moved this topic from Hardware on

Internet access disappears and connectivity networks connected to it goes. It does not reboot
I have rebooted and the problem goes away until the next time. -
So you're still able to connect to the 4100 itself when this happens? At the GUI? Via the serial console?
-
@stephenw10 Yes I can get to the GUI.
I have connected a PC via Putty to the console, just seeing the menu options so far, and the problem has not happened for two weeks. Will the console show messages when it crashes? -
@feisal Depends on the type of crash.
You may want to upgrade to 23.05.1

@rcoleman-netgate
I am running 23.05.1 right now -
Sounds like it isn't crashing then if you're still able to connect to the GUI.
Try to ping out from pfSense itself when this happens. How does it fail? -
Since I posted, It has not crashed at all.
-
Hmm, so maybe something changed locally?

@stephenw10
I am running syslog logging to a remote machine so as not to clutter the 4100 with logs, but that was in place before the crash. Not sure what could have changed. I login every day to check but so far it has been solid.
