Description

$ipseccfg['dns-interval'] is never defined and looks like legacy code/refactoring error.

https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/master/src/etc/inc/ipsec.inc#L3309-L3311:

        if (!empty($ipseccfg['dns-interval']) && is_numeric($ipseccfg['dns-interval'])) {
            $interval = $ipseccfg['dns-interval'];
        }

  • Tracker changed from Bug to Feature
  • Subject changed from Unused ```dns-interval``` option to GUI option for IPsec ``dns-interval`` setting
  • Affected Version deleted (2.6.0)

It is a "hidden" config option to let users choose how often to re-resolve FQDN endpoints for IPsec. Users could manually insert it into config.xml, but at the time it was added there wasn't a compelling reason to also add a GUI option. There is a similar option for aliases on system_advanced_firewall.php.

We can add it to the advanced IPsec settings tab, but it the backend code can remain as it is.

Tested on 22.05.a.20220417.0600.

The interval is added correctly:

root 62793 0.0 0.3 12140 2784 - Is 18:44 0:00.01 |-- /usr/local/sbin/filterdns -p /var/run/filterdns-ipsec.pid -i 10 -c /var/etc/ipsec/filterdns-ipsec.hosts -d 1

However, the actual resolve interval seems to be done at twice the value in the config. This seems to be a separate issue, but it's worth noting. Details here:
