Last week, we received complaints that one of our firewalls (v4.1 running on solaris) has essentially stopped passing packets. The engineer responding to the complaint first tried reinstalling the policy - which relieved the problem. However, later inspection of the log reveals that during the same period, the firewall itself has started initiating dns requests (UDP) at the speed of about 200 per second! While this may explain why not much else was going on, I was wondering if anyone else had seen a firewall wander off in this way before and if there were any theories on what could have caused it?
