      Do you still see the error in the upnp logs showing it failing to remove the forward though?

      It looks like the forward is being opened without a leasetime and I'm unsure what should happen in that situation. I can create a similar lease manually by defining 0s specifically:

      Go to http://miniupnp.free.fr/ or https://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/
      for more information.

      I'll see what happens.

        Also by omitting a lease time value.

        I wonder if it should add a default and is not.... 🤔

          Mmm, this thread seems pretty revealing: https://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=5727#5727

          Seems like the behaviour you're seeing is expected is the client opens forward with no lease time.

            Yes that forum thread explains the behavior. I cannot do anything except removing mapped port manually. From a security point of view the consoles have their own IP assigned so it is ok if the mapped port are there until I remove them manually. Only consoles have access to UPnP service with proper “allow” and IP, other IP are denied by default in the Service ACL.
            Thanks for help and time.

              Mmm, I tried added min and max lifetime options to the conf and it made absolutely no difference I could see! 🙄
