Cant figure out why I keep getting this error
-
New alert found: A communications error occured while attempting XMLRPC sync with username admin http://192.168.51.3:80.
I get these on my Master PF Sense, 192.168.51.3 is the PFSYNC Interface on my backup PF sense
Any Idea?
Thanks, Jon

Those errors mean that multiple devices are using the same IP address - or it looks that way to the OS.
The most common cause is either two devices fighting over the same IP, or there may be some other misconfigurations that could cause it, such as using proxy ARP VIPs on a CARP cluster instead of CARP or Other type VIPs.
Or you have something amiss in how you have your NICs/switches plugged in

Hmm Im using Broadcoms Smart Load Balancing with 4 NICs teamed on each server. Could that be causing confusion?
I seemed to got rid of error "alert found: A communications error occured while attempting XMLRPC sync with username admin http://192.168.51.3:80" by creating a rule on the pfsync interface allowing all

yeah some load balancing/NIC teaming does that normally. Otherwise it's generally indicative of an IP conflict or ARP poisoning.

thanks, is it safe to ignore those messages? anyway to get them not to log?
