TrueNAS Scale and firefox extension Port Authority

TrueNAS General

I found that the extension Port Authority interferes with proper TrueNAS scale UI operation (on at least 25.04.1 and 25.04.2). Solution is to turn it off or set the IP or URL used to be a domain that Port Authority bypasses.

correction: 25.04.0 and 25.04.1

Thanks… so no problem, just advice for others.

Advice that hopefully makes it into search engines. I had quite an adventure trying to fix what I thought was a network issue that turned out to (most likely) be a slightly paranoid java/javascript blocker.

I hope it is not the case that my install of TrueNAS is actually port scanning machines that try to connect to the administrative UI (port 80). I do not understand enough to judge if that is necessary and useful behavior for a web interface.
