Hello, my default pf config blocks everything and allowes specific connections. One of them is "in from x to self port ssh" which expands to "port ssh keep state flags S/SA" by default.
After ssh login, I see the corresponding entry in the states table: all tcp 2001:db8:f0bb:1::1[22] <- 2001:db8:f0bb:1::3:1[42730] ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED pfctl -s info claims: TIMEOUTS: ... tcp.established 86400s ... After a couple of hours of inactivity, the ssh session silently stalls. Here's what I have in the log: rule 3/0(match): block in on rl1: 2001:db8:f0bb:1::3:1.42730 > 2001:db8:f0bb:1::1.22: Flags [P.], ack 1444009640, win 65535, length 48 The rule evaluation by itself is correct, it's no TCP-SYN, so it get's blocked, but this packet should not get through the ruleset at all, at least not before 86400s of idle connection. In my case, it was after ~3 hours. And ports numbers are exactly the same as in the state table entry from some hours before. So the state table entry seems to got lost! My question: Is such a problem known? Did I miss enything else? System runs 8.1-STABLE/x86 Another issue was that "no-route" doesn't work for IPv6 connections. I had to replace it with "any". Thansk for any hints in advance, -Harry P.S.: It's an embedded box where upgrading is overdue, but not that easy...
