v2: Engine disconnects from remote manager after firewall settings change #686

Description

@ason-assistant

Version: V2

Changing firewall settings on an engine causes the engine to disconnect from its remote manager. The disconnect is only on the engine ↔ manager control channel — SRT / RIST media streams continue to work fine on the same box.

Recovery requires a full engine-box restart — restarting just the media-router services isn't enough.

Notes / hypothesis

  • Firewall config apply is likely resetting/flushing a netfilter chain the control-channel socket is riding on (or dropping conntrack state for the manager connection).
  • Would be worth checking whether the manager socket is being reopened after firewall reload, and whether existing conntrack entries are being cleared.
