Title: Settings lost after reboot

I lost all of my interface assignments and firewall rules after a reboot today.

Did you actually install OPNsense or rebooted the initial Live Environment ?

Note

That the installation media is read-only, which means your current live configuration will be lost after reboot.

i did yes. It's rebooted before without issue.

Most of the settings were untouched, however, firewall rules and the interface assignments were wiped.
Restoring the assignments automatically assed them back into the bridge. And tailscale was still set up.

Ok, my only suggestion would be checking your storage, do a fscheck and SMART diag to see if it's still OK.

By any chance have you installed Tailscale and assigned the Interface?

After doing this I had the same issue. Atilscale is working even interface is not assigned.
Give it a try.

Same here today, lost settings after reboot. I can restore the settings, access the router. But it happens again after the reboot.

I found the root cause in this case. After removing a network card (disable / unassign & remove) in Proxmox, it results in 1 unassigned NIC after reboot. I restored the backup, re-assigned the unassigned NIC to the interface and it worked.
