    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.

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.

    @EChondo What's your pfSense version ? The instructions are shown here : [image: 1753262126227-1acdc586-cb29-4148-9e36-81ade4e5e60c-image.png] A restart of a service will start by re creating their config files. If a certificate changed, it will get included. When the process starts, it will use the new certificate. @EChondo said in Issue with ACME Certificates Refresh & Restarting HAProxy: I haven't been able to confirm if the above works(mine just renewed, don't feel like doing it again just to test), so we'll see in 60 days I guess. No need to wait x days. You can re test / renew right away, as you are 'allowed' to renew a couple (5 max ?) of times per week.

    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?

    @spectre-988 said in Netgate SG-1100 unable to install packages: I've been working on using the device at my home for a HA fail over device. I've got the device to become part of the HA but when the primary wants to sync the packages they aren't able to due to packages not being installed. I try to install myself but package manager just sits at waiting for the update system to initiate. I am not sure if the version of Pfsense I am using is the problem or the Bios. I know both are older and tried to update Pfsense version and get that the system is on a later version than the official release. Without physically separated interfaces the 1100 is not suited for HA. It could do it, sure, but the WAN, LAN, and OPT are all the same NIC in the system, just VLAN'd to a switch. Your expectations should be very tempered -- failover cannot happen based on physical disconnection and is going to be unreliable.

    I know that this question is old, but it actually helped me getting tcptraceroute on opnsense. The key thing was pkg add from freebsd. So for me it needed to be updated since I am on freebsd:13:amd64, I found https://freebsd.pkgs.org/13/freebsd-amd64/ with search :) So for me the resulting command was: pkg add http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:13:amd64latest/All/tcptraceroute-1.5beta7.txz Still same version of tcptraceroute 2 years later, but it is how to find the package name that is important So thanks for this thread.

    @jimp Ok. So I took a few minutes and there's somthing I'm not getting. When the Update setting is set to 22.05 the Package Manager shows two updatable packages, WireGuard 0.1.6_1 and ipsec-profile-wizard 1.0_4. [image: 1656626435886-screenshot-22.05.png] And much to my surprise, when the Update setting is set to 22.01, I see one updatable package WireGuard 0.1.6_1 !: [image: 1656626445074-screenshot-22.01.png] Is this correct? Is WireGuard 0.1.6_1 supposed to work on 22.01, or not? Upgrading WireGuard to 0.1.6_1 is the action that took down WireGuard in our NH router. Here are the messages from the NH log that appear to describe the problem: Jun 27 21:12:15 kernel linker_load_file: /boot/modules/if_wg.ko - unsupported file type Jun 27 21:12:15 kernel KLD if_wg.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch What's wrong?

    @dvl Great. Option 2 would have been to reinstall and restore from backup. The upgrade thing catches lots of people. I put it in my sig a while back. One such problem is when the package is dependent on a PHP version that doesn't exist in the older pfSense, so it gets upgraded. There's a redmine to hopefully fix it or at least block/warn people.

    Well one issue with the move to the new version. Previously bind was installed on my /cf now it is in /var/etc/named/etc/namedb/ a side effect, is whenever the router is restarted all my keys specified as global option will vanish include "/etc/namedb/acme-keys.key"; include "/etc/namedb/ddns-key-inf.key"; include "/etc/namedb/ddns-key-sec.key"; include "/etc/namedb/ddns-key.key"; An idea would be to save them in the pfsense configuration.

    @dennypage said in WebUI takes forever to load if UPS unreachable...: I am assuming that the host running the NUT sever is using a fixed IP address, yes? And in the NUT config on pfSense, are you using the IP address (rather than hostname) to identify the NUT sever? Yep, my whole network is based around fixed IP's, either both on the machine and dhcp server or only in dhcp server. And yes pfsense connects via IP. @dennypage said in WebUI takes forever to load if UPS unreachable...: You might want to consider moving to using pfSense as the NUT sever and having the other host as a client. NUT on pfSense is very stable. Well my room is kinda limited because of the network cabling, the pfsense box and the UPS is on the opposite end of my room. Would require a 5 meter+ cable to connect the 2. Thats why i opted for a dedicated box and ATM this problematic box is the only one i can use. Done a few things to it including installing intel-microcode package and seems to be stable now ( knocks on wood ).
