Running a seed box behind a 2.1 firewall, just over a week or so ago the clients upnp built in test started to show as "port closed".
Testing from canyouseeme.org also shows that the port is indeed closed.The upnp status (in pfsense) does show TCP and UDP ports for this IP, but no teredo (it was there before at some time, dunno if it missing now is the problem).
It was working perfectly until I updated snapshots over a week ago.
Is anyone else experiencing problems like this?
Updated to today's snapshot and the issues persist… -
Issue still persists. This is getting frustrating because the only reason I have this firewall installed to begin with is to protect the seedbox, not to restrict legitimate clients!
Latest transmission client tested on 2 separate LAN PC's with UPNP enabled.
Still both report ports closed and canyouseeme.org reports them as closed as well.This worked before with no issues and changes other than pfsense snapshot upgrades… one of the snapshots in the past while has broken this.
The only changes to a default pfsense install are selecting "6to4 tunnel" for IPv6 on the WAN, and "track interface" for ipv6 on the LAN. Everything else is set at installer default.
Would like to think that with 120+ ppl viewing this that at least one of them can either replicate the same issue or make a guess as to what has changed to affect this...

Well I was able to duplicate the issue..
I normally don't use upnp - but had set it up for my sons xbox limiting it to just his xbox IP..
So I edited the allow rules to allow my test box at 192.168.1.210 to use UPnP.. And so I create a rule via UPnP from the test box for couple different things rdp 3389, didn't work and brought up webserver on 8080 and didn't work
but according to the status in pfsense upnp had created the rule - see attached, just showing the 8080 test here. But firewall log shows these connections blocked? See second attached

Thanks for taking the time to verify and document this issue John, Was hopeing that we could do this to prove that there indeed is a problem so that it does not go ignored as user error as my first post did…
Let's hope it gets priority over grammatical corrections in one of the upcoming snapshots ;) -
No problem I don't have a use for UPnP myself, not really a fan - I had set it up for my sons xbox more just for reason to play with it and the rules of limiting UPnP access to specific devices for any possible future need (unlikely)
I normally would just setup nat for his specific ports for his xbox.. But figure this would give some exp with UPnP - not a fan ;)
But yeah if its going to be included as an option - it should work ;) Which from my testing is not currently.

There were some recent pf changes so I may need to rebuild the UPnP daemon again.
I just did it now, try the next new snap (not up yet, will be dated later today) and see if it works.

FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p5Gitsync of couple of minutes ago.. Still seeing the same issue, rules look like there in place via upnp status, but blocked in the firewall. I am not seeing anything in the system log about it. Or any other odd errors.
BTW that Teredo is not related – thats just that you have not turned that off on your clients, unless you have some reason to be using it?? I for sure can not see one if your running ipv6 on your wan?

Second IP (192.168.1.110) is a user with skype on his iphone, 192.168.1.105 is the seedbox with UPNP port closed issues. -
Is igb0 actually your WAN/default route?

Is igb0 actually your WAN/default route?
Yep, igb0 is hooked to the cable router (WAN). Its a simple setup, Intel Gigabit ET2 Quad port server adapter (only using 2 ports -.-) in a HP Proiliant DL380 server.
igb0 for WAN and igb1 for LAN. No errors show in system log at all.
As i noted in an earlier post, The only changes to a default pfsense install are selecting "6to4 tunnel" for IPv6 on the WAN, and "track interface" for ipv6 on the LAN. Everything else is set at installer default. -
Hi
I can confirm this issue. The "transmission" torrent application is a good tester because it both asks UPnP to open the port, then has it probed from the outside to confirm that the port has actually been opened.

Or, perhaps pf is now behaving differently (ignoring?) miniupnpd's request.

I'm happy to run further tests. Let me know what you want done.
Thanks

I updated to the latest snapshot (yesterday's) and I have no problem on i386. uTorrent opens a port and the port test succeeds.
If the rules are there, it should be working. When UPnP was really broken, there were no rules added there.

Still not working - showing it blocked in the firewall
Canyouseeme saying closed.. But clearly the firewall is blocking it - even thouse the pfctl shows rules should be there?

John, If you set a static port map do you still see packets being blocked as indicated in your screenshot?
If so this would indicate an issue outside of the miniupnp daemon itself…I updated to the latest snapshot (yesterday's) and I have no problem on i386. uTorrent opens a port and the port test succeeds.
If the rules are there, it should be working. When UPnP was really broken, there were no rules added there.
Do you think a clean install would make a difference Jim?
-
Unlikely, but possible.

Jim,
Please don't think I'm being confrontational, but what would it take to prove this issue exists for some of us?
