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?
I have been using pfSense (1.2.3) and FS. 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?
Thanks!
