  I've no idea how viable it would be.... says it's an application-level visibility and filtering package that's currently available for OPNSense. I suspect it would need some kind of integration but that's above my knowledge level. Seems interesting anyway... https://www.sunnyvalley.io/sensei

  @METDeath Avahi reflection, which is what is used to proxy mDNS, applies to all allowed interfaces. There is no way to limit the advertisements. Remember however that being able to see the device doesn't mean that you can route packets to it. Standard firewall rules still apply. In other words, you can't hide it but you can easily prevent people from using it.

  @kevindd992002 said in NUT package: What do you mean by "it shows a low battery situation"? I don't see that in the June 15 logs. Sorry I'm confused. The UPS started charging (on online power) since June 14 8:26PM so I'm pretty sure it's fully charged by the it notified me via email on June 15 12:00PM. I also asked my relatives which are on-site and they confirmed that electricity only went out once on June 15. Sorry, was reading low battery situation on the 14th. Most likely guess regarding the 15th is that the UPS failed the mains before the system properly flushed the disk log. Things I would suggest: If the battery is over three years old, replace it. If the battery has been through two hundred discharge cycles or more, replace it. Perform a battery health check (long self test). Perform a run-time calibration (note this counts as a cycle). Raise the values for charge.low and runtime.low. If power outages are common, I would go very high on charge.low (50 or more). Remember that regardless of age, a battery will only last 200 discharge cycles or so, so the higher you set the value the longer your battery will last.

  @0daymaster I run the speedtest every 30 minutes now, but it's just me, so who cares? You pretty much need everything in this thread to do what I did. 1 - Install speedtest-cli on the FW. Run some tests from the shell to get a feel for it. 2 - Setup a Thinkspeak.com account and do the @icewraithuk edits to the speedtest.py file (make @cukal 's edits for Mbps instead of MB if you wish). 3 - Now you should be able to send the data to Thinkspeak to generate the graphs. Format them in the style/colors as you wish. You'll use the Read API Key to post the data you'll add to the widget. 4 - Then just use @RaidArray 's instruction to add the URL for your chosen Thingspeak graphs and to create the widget you can load from the FW homepage. 5- You can DL the html file from the Thingspeak forum post and edit it in a text editor to make it useful for your data. I didn't incorporate it into the FW homepage, though. I now also use a Windows version of speedtest-cli (Google) running as a scheduled task on an inside server so the tests actually run through the FW rather than from it All credit goes to everyone else. I just managed to screw some parts together, in spite of myself.

  I just ran into another FreeRadius question, an found this : clog /var/log/system.log | grep "FreeRADIUS: User" Run it yourself on your system. Console access or SSH, option 8. Now, when user logs in, you have it's user name, right ?! Let say, the user is called "107" What about this : clog /var/log/system.log | grep "FreeRADIUS: User 107" Now, take the last line : clog /var/log/system.log | grep "FreeRADIUS: User 107" clog /var/log/system.log | grep "FreeRADIUS: User" | tail -1 My idea is : when you make your own portal login page and portal error page (the page where the red error shows teh somewhat misleading : ""invalid credential"") Edit this error page, and add some PHP code that executes these shell commands - and if there is some result (read : useful messages). Show the result on the error page ! Something like : User x has reached the daily amount of upload and download traffic (124 MB of 8 MB). The login request was denied. Now, all you need to do is scripting this together using some PHP and the commands you found above, and put it into the captive portal error page.

  Since it's a package it probably wants to be in the Packages category. There aren't enough threads about FRR for it to warrant its own subcategory yet, though.

  This is not all that uncommon. The Snort portscan preprocessor is very "trigger happy" ... . Go to the PREPROCESSORS tab for the impacted Snort interface and set the Sensitivity drop-down selector to Low. Save the change and restart Snort on the interface. That should help. If the Sensitivity setting is already Low, then you will probably have to disable that particular rule. Click the red X under the SID column on the ALERTS tab to disable it.

  Look in the firewall's system log around the time you suspect Suricata crashed. Odds are you will find a Signal 10 Bus Error. This is the result of an unaligned access to memory. It is a problem in Snort, Suricata and clamAV as a minimum on ARM hardware such as the SG-3100. I've tried a fix for Snort and Suricata. The Suricata fix was successful for a time, but not anymore. The issue is complicated to explain, but if you Google "unaligned memory access" you will find some info on what that is. This is only a problem on ARM hardware. Intel CPUs are immune as they will "auto-fixup" instructions that attempt unaligned access. I looked into this in some detail and found that the main problem in FreeBSD is with the llvm compiler used to create armv6/armv7 binary code. That compiler chooses at times to use an ARM instruction pair that does not support unaligned access. The compiler could choose to use a different pair of instructions to accomplish the same thing, and that different pair will support unaligned access via "auto-fixup" just like Intel CPUs. While it is technically true the issue lies within the C programming code of the binary packages that are failing on ARM hardware, the practical implication is that since the code works on Intel hardware without issue -- and because the ARM hardware base is very small -- the upstream projects for Snort, Suricata, clamAV and others have no great desire to invest the energy and effort required to find the bugs in the C code and fix them. I worked with the pfSense team and we turned off compiler optimizations for these packages. It worked initially for Suricata, but now some change has crept into the upstream project and that change is causing unaligned access issues again on ARM hardware. The problem will appear as a random bug because it takes a particular sequence of data and the resulting program code flow while processing that data to hit the instruction that attempts the unaligned memory access. When the unaligned access occurs, that triggers a CPU hardware interrupt fault and the OS shuts down the application (and logs the Signal 10 bus error).

  Upon further investigation, and finding this thread: https://github.com/FRRouting/frr/issues/1617 I was able to confirm that the frr package in pfSense is not compiled with support for snmp: [2.4.4-RELEASE][admin@pfSense.localdomain]/var/agentx: vtysh Hello, this is FRRouting (version 5.0.2). Copyright 1996-2005 Kunihiro Ishiguro, et al. pfSense.localdomain# show modules Module information for zebra: Module Name Version Description libfrr 5.0.2 libfrr core module zebra 5.0.2 zebra daemon Module information for bgpd: Module Name Version Description libfrr 5.0.2 libfrr core module bgpd 5.0.2 bgpd daemon pfSense.localdomain# According to the ouput in the link, there should be a lines that look like this: zebra_snmp 5.0.2 zebra AgentX SNMP module bgpd_snmp 5.0.2 bgpd AgentX SNMP module It also appears net-snmpd is creating the Agent socket with permissions that wouldn't allow the frr user to connect, even if snmpd support was compiled in: [2.4.4-RELEASE][admin@pfSense.localdomain]/var/agentx: ps aux | grep frr frr 55620 0.0 0.6 12232 6496 - Is 18:17 0:00.01 /usr/local/sbin/zebra -d -f /var/etc/frr/zebra.conf frr 56009 0.0 1.0 21588 9668 - Is 18:17 0:00.01 /usr/local/sbin/bgpd -d -f /var/etc/frr/bgpd.conf [2.4.4-RELEASE][admin@pfSense.localdomain]/var/agentx: ls -l total 0 srwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 0 May 10 15:17 master I chmod 777'ed it just an experiment, but still no joy. So where do I go from here? Two feature requests on Redmine? A feature request and a bug? I'd like to think that Netgate would be very interested in addressing these two issues, as it's highly desirable functionality (SNMP monitoring) of one of the core uses cases for pfSense (BGP/OSPF routing). Thanks again!

  On further thought, I think I understand why it won't work... Openvpn is connected to the wan and traffic from openvpn unless going to the lan, like dns, isn't going through the lan interface. So it is technically monitoring the data correctly for the interface it just isn't able to do what I want it to do.

  @belrpr If you do not specify a domain name in the DHCP server, it will use the domain name of the firewall. This is almost certainly what you want. Unless you are trying to achieve something very specific, I would recommend staying with the defaults (delete the domain name specification from both DHCP and from Avahi).
