Re: [pfSense] pfSense 2.4 Sporadic Routing Issues
Just for the archives, setting up totally new VMs seems to have fixed it. Looking at the difference between the old and new VMs, the only change that caught my eye was that the old VMs were set to dynamically allocate memory, where as the new ones have a fixed memory size.

Re: [pfSense] pfSense 2.4 Sporadic Routing Issues
Looking through the mailing list, I disabled Firewall Scrub (System > Advanced > Firewall & NAT) per the "pfSense 2.4 consistently crashes daily" thread, but I'm still having issues. When the nodes go offline, there aren't any kernel messages in the console that would indicate a panic or similar. The log files just stop at that time, there are no entries that indicate issues. I'm at a loss for what troubleshooting I should try short of a complete re-install. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[pfSense] pfSense 2.4 Sporadic Routing Issues
Hi List- I'm having some issues with a pfSense 2.4.2 installed on a VM in Proxmox VE. I've kinda run into a stumper for me, and I'm not really sure where to start looking. Basically, the router will stop routing traffic at times and requires a restart. The node is still "up," I think, because VPN clients are able to connect (although they can't reach anything) and CARP doesn't fail over to the second router. The Zabbix agent on the node becomes unresponsive along with pings on all interfaces though. I don't think it's an issue with CARP, since CARP fails over correctly in all other instances and once the node is powered off, failover occurs immediately. This has occurred a number of times, all around 12:50 - 1:15 in the morning local time. Nodes do not run Snort and backups scheduled for that time complete well before the node goes offline. Dates seem random, no rhyme or reason on which days it actually occurs. I've also changed which physical node the router runs on and how the disk is stored, to try and isolate if it's an issue with PVE, but the issue remains. I have all the logs from the machine, and have local monitoring that records various network / service errors on applications running on the network during the failures, I'm happy to send along whatever would be helpful, I'm just not sure where to start looking :/ -- Thanks, Andrew Kester The Storehouse https://sthse.co ___ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold
