- Steam Games Strict NAT Issue

Xbox strict NAT
It's odd, because the nat-pmp/pcp configuration does support a lifetime configuration (apparently not exposed by the OPNSense UI). I assume that's not shared by the UPnP code path. Even so, time-limited rules was one of the security additions with UPnP v2, so I would doubt "unlimited" would be an option if it were made configurable. It really feels like this is on Xbox to implement properly. Other UPnP consumers like Plex handle it just fine.

pfSense CE 2.5.2-RELEASE Now Available
https://github.com/miniupnp/miniupnp/issues/413 is closed. So I’m not sure if the problem exists there still or where?

Testing 2.5.1 and 2.6 in a VM. Where is UPNP?
Reading this https://github.com/miniupnp/miniupnp/issues/448 is pretty sad. UPNP is very useful for home users. We are 5 people in our family with about 20 internet connected devices. No way I am setting up Port Forwarding manually for each app on each device. I have other things to do with my very scarce free time.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing npf and miniupnp you can also consider the following projects:
esp32_nat_router - A simple NAT Router for the ESP32
nft-qos - QoS over Nftables (This packages is merged upstream, please visit openwrt/packages and openwrt/luci for more detail)
esp_wifi_repeater - A full functional WiFi Repeater (correctly: a WiFi NAT Router)
AirConnect - Use AirPlay to stream to UPnP/Sonos & Chromecast devices
