If anyone knows where is the file logs Diagnostics DHCP Lease, I'm interested

@jimp:

Next time it happens, look at the system logs on the DHCP tab. It may give you some idea of what is happening there.

Even a reboot pfSense does not correct the problem.

@jimp:

Offline/expired leases will be reclaimed automatically, they shouldn't be "blocking" anything.

What indication do you have that this is really happening?

One Solution: delete one by one offline dhcp by webpage

:o

@jimp:

They will be reclaimed as needed. Why do you want to forcefully delete them? There really isn't much of a practical benefit for doing that.
