Hello everyone, I made some security testing on OPNsense 19.1.
I've configured it with two interfaces in bridge mode. The firewall is placed inside Hyper-V.
On the one hand, the first interface is conected to VM with hping in flood mode. On the other, on the second interface, I've a VM with wireshark. The firewall is configured to block every packets.
I observed that on reboot of the firewall, it become permissive for about 0 to 1 second on startup.
Is that an issue that you already known ?

Does this also happen with OPNsense in router mode?

I didn't test in routing mode

It's worth testing to see if the permissive period is due to the bridge coming up before the firewall, or something innate to OPNsense.
Do you have net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge set to 1 under System, Settings, Tunables?

Sorry for the latency.
Indeed this variable was set to 1.
