" I have cross checked the credentials and its both the same yet the issue still exists how will I resolve this please, I need help I am running OPNsense version Versions
OPNsense 25.1-amd64
FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE
OpenSSL 3.0.15
On both firewalls

Have a look at this two threads:

Issues with High Availability Setups After Update to 25.1

and
HA The backup firewall is not accessible (check user credentials)

There is an issue with HA when the OPNsense to not have direct internet access and are needing a proxy.
