You have a backup for your homelab pfSense config, right?

I’ve fallen into the trap of not having backups for parts of my homelab, in this case pfsense.

I’ve been using pfsense to bridge traffic between my home network and a vlan in my Proxnox homelab (documented here), but after attempting to update my config to use a static up for the wan up, apparently I broke all access to the web config hi, and then after trying to put it back, I still can’t access it, a,though it appears to be running running (routing traffic from my home lan to my homelab lan as expected).

I don’t have a backup of the settings, or even a snapshot of the VW that I can restore.

Hard lessons learnt are often then best lessons ☹️
