    @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.

    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?

    @Mike: on the master, whenever I change anything in my domain records, the serial on the master doesn't change and stays at the same value. This was how package used to do but some time ago this field is manually updated. You can add a value based on YYYMMDDNN or just delete it and save config.

    @Crispix: Resurrecting this thread, had the same question. I ended up working around the issue by creating a floating rule and checking the "quick" option so it takes precedence over my regular WAN rules. This way my OpenVPN allow rule takes precedence over pfBlockerNG block rules, so I don't have to worry about my VPN accidentally getting blocked by any of my third-party lists. No need for a workaround; a solution exists (see doktornotor's post above). To give more detail, on List Action, I have all mine set to "Alias Deny."

    @trinitech: If will buying a genuiun certificate will allow me to have transprent proxy with SSL Man In the Middle Filtering? Will this stop all the client to get certificate error? SSL MITM requires a Root CA certificate, which no reputable and trusted certificate issuer will provide. The reason is because a trusted Root CA is able to create certificates for ANY domain in existence and present them as valid. This is why you need to create your own Root CA, then install your Root CA certificate on all devices that will be going through the SSL MITM proxy. A regular SSL host certificate - whether from LetsEncrypt or any paid certificate issuer - will not allow you to do SSL MITM.

    +1 for the info in this thread. pfSense is the "master NUT server", using an USB APC UPS, my diskstation (DSM 213j - DSM 6.1.1-15101 Update 2 ) is connected to pfSense now, and shutdown when needed.

    @nipstech: Now, when there's a power failure what can I expect to happen? When the UPS reaches a low battery state, the UPS will signal NUT and NUT will initiate a shutdown. Given the time required to shutdown a Synology, you may wish to adjust the percentage or time used to determine that the battery is low. You can do this by configuring the UPS itself, or configuring NUT (recommended). See the doc for ups.conf for details on configuring NUT. I use the following for the system supporting my Synology:         ignorelb         override.battery.charge.low = 20         override.battery.runtime.low = 300 Hope this helps.

    @ioiioi: @ssppcc: In all cases, I can´t find the tun0 interface in the GUI, but I can find it via SSH with ifconfig. have ever fixed this problem? I got the same here, and would like to do 1:1 nat on tun0. but can't see tun0 from the interface menu. and of coz could not add rules for that. by default, tun interfaces have been hidden. you can unhide it in /etc/inc/util.inc or /etc/inc/utils.inc. first backup the file and search for "function get_interface_list" function, then remove the "tun" from "array". go to interface assign tab and press save, then you can add tun interface
