26.1 Series / Re: Firewall rules are sticky
February 05, 2026, 03:59:14 PM
Stateful is great, but when I change a rule I expect that the State also changed and not that i first have to reset all states.

Otherwise I think that everything works fine when I changed some rules, and after some time the states are reset and the system doesn't work any more.

This is my way of thinking I respect yours.

Thank you for the answer.

Still it is a strange behavior.
Better was a question to leave the states active or reset them right away.

26.1 Series / Firewall rules are sticky
February 05, 2026, 12:30:09 PM
Firewall rules are sticky. version 26.1.1 (tested with ping)
When i create a rule, it don't matter if it is a rule or a rule [new]
  ip4 any to any
After starting this the rule is applied as expected.
When I turn off the rule
 my ping request still running fine (also in a new session)
I have to reboot the firewall and than the rule is not valid any more.

thanks for the replay.

Yes sometimes it boots most of the times it hangs on the debug window. when the system is stuck into a debug window a reboot or sometimes more are needed to get any further.
Opnsense seem when booted to run without any problems.

The system is running on vmware esxi 6.5

I have more Opnsense in the same VM configuration on the same VM server running (whiteout this problem)

Maybe I have to tweak the default VM graphic options to overcome this problem.

Hello,

After the upgrade to 18.7 the system hangs on db. prompt upgrade to version 18.7.1_3 didn't fix the problem.
After several reset or reboots the system runs again.

What to do to fix this ?
