Hi,

I'm runing some IP telephony services and have recently setup a pfsense firewall in bridge mode.
But i'm having some issues.

My bridged interface is being disconnected with the following message:
Nov 27 14:56:42 kernel: ste3: watchdog timeout
Nov 27 14:56:42 kernel: ste3: link state changed to DOWN
Nov 27 14:56:44 kernel: ste3: link state changed to UP
Nov 27 14:56:47 check_reload_status: rc.linkup starting

I have alot of traffic on the system.
In avarage:
6000 states.
17.45 k packets pps.
26.28 Mb/s
CPU usage 55%
Memory usage 11%
Swap usage 0%

Any idea of what could be the issue here?

I switched to monowall and i don´t have the issue.
Would this be a issue in the 1.2 release you think?

Which version of pfSense 1.2 were you using (exact version, "the latest" is meaningless)?

Which version of m0n0wall are you using (ditto)?
