no firewall rules loaded after reboot with invalid ruleset
0%
Description
not a single firewall rule loaded after reboot..
There should be some failsafe default ruleset that prohibits access from at least all 'wan interfaces' until a proper ruleset can be loaded.
Granted this is caused by another issue https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/6024 where a invalid rule gets written to the debug.rules..
There have been other cases that made rules.debug fail to load like having shapers with wrong bandwith or url-aliases that point to a somehow invalid formatted file.. So i think it would be better to provide a minimal 'bootup ruleset' that blocks all wan access instead of being 'wide open' until at least some proper rules could be applied.

Pet peeve of mine that the system seems to be wide open by default until firewall rules get applied. Think I brought it up or mentioned it once long ago in the forums.
So even if the firewall rules load properly the system still seems to be open between the time the interface is brought up and when the firewall rules get applied.
And as you have noticed if the rules fail to get applied the system remains open.

Ought to keep a "last known good" rules.debug and apply that if it fails, and if that fails/is unavailable, maybe just the anti-lockout rule on LAN. I'll look at it post-2.3.

Manually created an invalid configuration by modifying config.xml to make an HFSC queue that cannot load because the child bandwidth is higher than the parent queue.

This implementation will not cover PHP errors. When PHP crashes code is not executed and there is not much we can do.

Apply following patch to your system and reboot. It will make it to create an invalid set of rules without crash PHP
