I did do a nap_map status when the ports were missing from pfSense and FS thought they were still open. I didn't know about nat_map republish, but will try next time. I think the timeframe is days, so this is kind of hard to diagnose. I may add a periodic nat_map republish from fs_cli to our production systems. In any case, I'll keep an eye on it and try nat_map republish next time pfSense drops the ports to be sure that is working in this environment. In the meantime, which .c file(s) can I peruse to learn more? Thanks! Troy On Feb 9, 2010, at 3:07 AM, Rupa Schomaker wrote:
I believe FS opens the ports with an indefinite timeout (never close). I'd have to double check. In addition, FS refreshes the NAT mappings on every keep-alive packet sent by the upnp gateway. Have you done a nat_map status once the ports are missing in pfsense to see if fs still thinks the ports should be open? What if you do a nat_map republish? Do the maps get pushed to pfsense and then stay open for a whlie?
Perhaps pfsense is sending a keep-alive packet that we don't process right or is invalid? If so, I'd need a packet trace to do analysis.

FS nicely uses UPnP to poke holes in the firewall, but it seems that the holes close after a while. I cannot find any documentation in FS nor in pfSense as to what the timeout is. Is there a setting in FS to do some kind of keep-alive thing with UPnP to keep, e.g. 5060, open? Or is it already doing that and pfSense is the issue?
