    I think it is more FreeBSD's problem than pfSense's but decided
    anyway to post it here as somebody might run into the same issue.
    When we use MD5 TCP signing with OpenBGP package TCP connection
    termination does not go properly which results in BGP password
    errors on remote cisco side and thus problems with reestablishing
    connection/routing.

    So, normal tcp connection tearing down procedure:
    ---FIN--->

    <---ACK---
    <---FIN---
    ----ACK--->
    All these TCP packets must be MD5 signed (correct me if I am
    wrong). The problem is: when pfSense initiates connection
    termination (you want to clear BGP session) the last ACK is not
    MD5 signed. It makes cisco keep this connection active for some
    time sending FINs as it attempts to close the connection.
    If somebody has a clue how to fix this I would be very grateful
    for solution.


Try disabling selective acks.
should be net.inet.tcp.sack.enable=0

No luck. The same story.
