      Hi,

      Iam currently redesigning my PfSense firewall setup to make use of aliases instead of single rules on each interface. But my Soekris is starting to act kind of strange. When I delete rules or add new ones, PfSense not always does what it's supposed to do. Somethimes when I add more rules and apply them, they disapear after some time. Also the comments on the rules and aliases are not always updated as a type in a description. When I delete multiple rules they are back after some time, it seems to work out after some time if I just keep trying, but I can't find any pattern.

      I think it started after I have used "Easy rule creator" I know this function is experimental, and therefor deleted all the rules made by this function and made my own. But the problem didn't disappear.

      Anyone experiened the same?

      Best regards

      Mathias

              That also crossed my mind, but it have been running fine for 6 months or so…

              Is that version stable enough for implementing in production enviroment?

                rock solid, i would say.  if nothing else, reinstall 1.2.2 and restore your config - something may have gotten corrupted.

                  Okay maybe I should just upgrade and see if it works out that way. Thanks!
