24.1 Legacy Series / Re: Strange new reboot couple times a day

For those having this issue, do you happen to have ntopng installed on your OPNsense box?
I was having a similar issue after updating to 24.1.8 where my WAN gateways would drop every hour and I would have to bounce the WAN interface if I caught it soon enough or have to reboot to recover internet access. I was getting the 'configd.py action rfc2136.reload.wan not found for user root' and similar rfc2136.reload errors in the system log files. I was also seeing dhcpd and dchpd6 services stopping and restarting.
Reverting back to 24.1.7 didn't fix anything so I did a clean reinstall of OPNsense (no backup restore) and noticed the issue went away. I slowly turned plugins back on and noticed my issues returned right after I installed ntopng. After deactivating the ntopng plugin the issues went away again.
I also commented on reddit and there was at least one other person who have seen a similar issue with ntopng.

I'm now on 24.1.9_3 without issue. I'm not sure what ntopng modifies in the system but it clearly was causing some conflict with my wan gateways and interface.
