    Hi Andrew, thanks for the tip. I forgot reply here. In our case, the problem was the hardware. Since 2013 I use the same hardware an Athlon LE-1620(1 Core) with 2GB. Some months ago, we created an app with many HAProxy rules and the access is growing. We bought one fanless with Intel J6426 and 8GB and now it´s work fine.

    @NRgia said in Suricata on Pfsense: @bmeeks Thank you for what you did for Snort or Suricata. I'm not sure what you want me to do on Redmine, due to is a bug tracker. My question is for Product Management, which I will ask it here to be public: What is the plan for these 2 packages, Suricata and Snort? Thank you Yes, Redmine is for both bug reports and feature requests. Asking for the Suricata binary to be updated to the latest 7.0.11 version from upstream is a legitimate Redmine request. I would suggest simply asking for the binary version update instead of asking about future Netgate strategy (such as the support plans for the packages). Strategy discussions typically don't get very far because they deal with proprietary information or plans that a company may not want to publicly discuss. Redmine is where the Netgate developer team tracks all the code changes they make for pfSense. They will see Redmine reports much quicker than a forum post.

    @Leon-Straathof Data retention settings are handled inside of ntopng. Documentation here. Pay attention to the RRD note. Also, if you've turned on some of the slice and dice time series information (is off by default), I'd suggest turning them back off. These balloon the storage requirements and are of little actual use.

That's probably good thing ? ( ! ). Up to you to discover why your NAS should initiate connections to these countries. A NAS can go outside for maintenance purposes, for example to look for updates of it's system. These could be located anywhere of course. The GeoIP IP created a rule for you. How and where do you use that this rule ?

    @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: Interesting. I would have thought the initial reboot, which occurred as part of the upgrade, would have done the trick, but it took a second reboot, just now, to get things working. Glad you have it sorted. There was no difference in the output of usbconfig show_ifdrv at any point -- before or after unplugging/replugging the USB cable, nor after rebooting. ... Question: What would tell me whether or not a driver was loaded? If there were an attached driver, it should have shown up with the show_ifdrv command. If you use the command and look at the other usb devices, I think they will show attached drivers. I don't expect to see a driver attached to the ups, because there is a quirk that tells the OS to ignore that device (and not attach a driver). Look for idVendor and idProduct in the above output. The Vendor ID for your device is 0764, which corresponds to Cyber Power Systems, and the Product ID for your device is 0601, which is registered as "PR1500LCDRT2U UPS" (don't sweat an exact match for the name). You can see the quirk with the following command: [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: usbconfig dump_device_quirks | grep 0764 VID=0x0764 PID=0x0005 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0501 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0601 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: Your device is third on the list. The HID_IGNORE quirk says to ignore the device and not attach a driver. @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: You might consider adding this resolution to the release notes for 2.8. LOL... sorry, I don't have input to the release notes (I don't work here). While I wrote and maintain various packages, including NUT, I'm still just a volunteer. Most packages are actually written by volunteers.

    ACME pkg v1.0 is out now for pfSense Plus 25.07, 24.11, and CE 2.8.0. Bug fixes/changes: Synchronized with upstream acme.sh version 3.1.2 (master branch) Various upstream bug fixes for DNS providers Removed deprecated OCSP stapling options https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/16195 Fixed a bug with nsupdate and challenge aliases https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15061 Added initial support for custom ACME servers Add servers on the General Settings tab. Note: This feature has undergone basic testing, however, there is no way to know if it will work against any custom ACME server, and there is no way for the package to know which validation methods are supported by an ACME server. Use at own risk. Test before deployment. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/9833 Existing Provider Changes: Gandi LiveDNS has deprecated API keys and now uses a Personal Access Token (PAT). Configure the new PAT option to ensure future updates work. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/16294 Active24 changed from a single Token to an API Key + API Secret and must be reconfigured before use. Selectel API version v1 is deprecated, but still available as a new option, along with new API v2 options. Must be reconfigured before use. New DNS Providers: Beget.com EdgeCenter.ru FreeMyIP.com HE.net DDNS Mijn.host OpenProvider via REST API Spaceship Technitium ZoneEdit Note: The change from 0.9 to 1.0 does not reflect any particular significant change in the package, but it has been stable for so long that keeping its version number below zero no longer made sense.

    Since my upgrade to 25.07-RELEASE (amd64) built on Tue Jul 22 22:24:00 CEST 2025 FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT, on one end of my most important tunnel, the tunnel still works fine, but the pfSense GUI keeps reporting the service as stopped. I had to remove its monitoring from the Service Watchdog which was also trying to start it, without success. Yet the trafic flows correctly. I'm holding off upgrading my other boxes. Is there something I could do to help diagnose?

    I've been able to confirm... If the interface does not show in the PIMD Virtual Interface Table on the Status Tab, it gives the "Invalid phyint address" error in the logs. Sooo.... It appears that there is some limit that is preventing PIMD from seeing all the interfaces. The closest information I found is related to Linux and the limit is defined in the kernel... I'm guessing even though I've been able to reverse my settings and avoid the errors in the logs, that any interfaces not shown in the Table are just ignored and are not participating in IGMP :-(

    That alert is coming from the built-in QUIC-events rules that ship with the Suricata binary. The events rules are simply informational in nature and don't indicate any malware or other compromise. I suggest disabling that rule or else using the "suppress by SID" feature on the ALERTS tab to prevent the alert the resulting block of a host.

    Just a side note.. I have not always set the "proxy" in my client devices and it still would work.. but sometimes the client device would bypass the proxy and cause me issues.

    @jasch Thanks. I finally got around to try again. But to no avail. I allow everything through (any/any/any/any -you get the drift). It seems like both ends, music streamer on LAN and smartphone on OPT1, succeeds in passing multicast traffic to the multicast addresses. But the phone is still not aware of the streamer's existence unless I put them on the same subnet. I think I have to give up. I am too much fumbling in the dark.

    @Uglybrian Appreciate that feedback. Why would cpu usage be at 23% if at idle thats where I am getting confused. Cpu usage has for the most part been half this number or lower and system activity is not showing it working on anything to justify the 23%. I may be looking at this wrong but to my mind cpu usage would be a representation of how much the cpu is being put to work on a task/function. I am assuming idle is the correct state given the command column contents and everything else in the system activity is or was at 0.00%.
