Keep loosing WAN IP Address - dhclient does not seem to do update
-
no, i have not seen any blocked packets that could have something to do with this, but i am one of those
who are affected by the "promiscuous mode disabled", and therefore my firwall logs stops after a while.isn´t there a way to catch the dhclient message and "restart" dhclient when its terminating, just as a workaround until you pinned down the problem ?
-
We already have code to detect this but it doesnt appear to be working.

Good news!
I was able to replicate this problem thanks to sdale and Vescovo.
Vescovo had the final fix and it has been commited. Please upgrade to a snapshot about an hour from this message.

I think you forgot to wave your magic voodoo wand, problem still exists ;). I think the problem lies in the rc.newwanip not catching the interface being assigned 0.0.0.0 IP address.

Is not the real deal but if you disconnect the cable and connect it again you won't have link.
I have both ends with fixed ip (the router and firewall interface) and it should have link again like it should.Like I said, i think it's a good way to debug whenever you want. Tests always available.
Sorry if i'm wrong.

Tried this "fetch -o /etc/inc http://www.pfsense.com/~sullrich/filter.inc"
Now i have to reinstall pfsense :'(

I have added a workaround and verified that it does indeed seem to work.
Update to the latest snapshot at least an hour from now. Currently 11:46PM EST.

Works fine for me, only lost my ip 2 times, and that was before the latest snapshot.

Great! Almost started to go insane, because I know this fixed my issue. Please, someone else test?

Atm there is a workaround in pllace that will restart the dhclient when it exits. Does it get restarted?

Nope at 20:01:24 it exited, at 21:01 i lost my ip, then i had to do a renew.
-
It can take up to 5 minutes to restart dhclient depending on if check_reload_status is running.
So if you still have trouble please check that check_reload_status is running from a shell by doing:
ps awux | grep check_reload_status
Also, cat /etc/crontab | grep check
-
I found yet another problem. This WAN DHCP issue has been nothing but fun!
Try out a recent snapshot atleast an hour from now.

damn! snapshot 02-21 is not working :'( :'( :'(
