Hi there,
this is a minor problem, more like a bug:
I have two WAN connections: One to an ADSL router, and the other has a PPPoE connection on it. Both connections are monitored by pinging Google's DNS servers, and this works fine.
However, after a reboot, the PPPoE connection states "pending" instead of "connected" on OPNsense's main page, but in fact it is connected and working. If I go and open the connection's settings and save them (without any changes) then the monitoring starts and works correctly. Maybe it's just a script problem...
Weirdness with apinger reporting, I've seen this quite a bit. Restarting the gateway monitoring should also fix that. Are you using /var and /tmp MFS option (System: Settings: Misc)?
Yes, correct.
Meh, thanks. Fix in 15.7.5 I guess... I don't like /var MFS anymore. ::)
No, I couldn't reproduce this and there wasn't any suspicious code, but I'll keep an eye out.
