    Can I use pgblockerng aliases in Haproxy?

    If it was a firewall rule, typing pfb would produce a dropdown to select.

    Here it has to be written, but will it work? Is it supported?

    @bmeeks So after upgrading to the newest PfSense 2.8.0 everything is now working like a charm!

    Suricata no longer seems to strip off tags like it did before! Which means I can now use my network segmented by VLANs and still use the benefits of Suricata Inline IPS! Very niiize!

    I checked in the Alerts section and it is indeed generating the correct alerts from the different VLAN sections, I put Inline IPS on the parent interface of all the VLANs.

    I assume this is because the FreeBSD version is also updated with the new PfSense 2.8.0 version?

    Because before, as soon as I selected Inline IPS mode, my entire VLAN tagging would break and nothing was reachable until I switched back to Legacy mode.

    The database name is vnstat.db and its location is under /var/db/vnstat.
    With "Backup Files/Dir" we are able to do backup or also with a cron.

    @EChondo

    What's your pfSense version ?
    The instructions are shown here :

    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.

    I had a similar issue with Routed VTI over IPsec recently. FRR lost its neighbors after rebooting or when a tunnel went down. It never re-discovered it automatically. Only restarting FRR (either in GUI or via CLI) brought the neighbors back.

    When I manually added those under the OSPF neighbors tab in the GUI it seems to solve the problem as well.

  • Discussions about the Tailscale package

    Hello,
    I am unable to get the Tailscale package to work. The page at VPN > Tailscale > Authentication is stuck. It displays the error "Tailscale is not online," but also shows a "Logout and Clean" button, with no option to log in.
    link text

    This state persists even after performing the following troubleshooting steps:

    Rebooting the pfSense router.

    Completely uninstalling and reinstalling the Tailscale package multiple times.

    Clearing browser cache and using a private browser window.

    Toggling the main "Enable Tailscale" checkbox in the settings.

    Checking the logs, which show the service gets a "terminate" signal and shuts down cleanly; it does not crash.

    Manually trying to delete the state file with rm /var/db/tailscale/tailscaled.state, which failed because the file does not exist.

    It appears that the package's configuration is corrupted in a way that persists even after reinstallation. Can anyone advise on how to perform a complete manual cleanup of all Tailscale files and settings?

    I've read through some other posts about this, but they either didn't say whether the proposed solution worked or they were very convoluted and difficult to understand. Here is our scenario: We have 6 locations--Las Cruces (LC), Sunland Park (SP), El Paso (EP), Abilene (ABI), Fort Worth (FW), and Plano (PL). LC and ABI have software that is accessed by the other 4 locations via VPN. There are WireGuard VPNs set up between LC and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL), and ABI and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL). There is also a WireGuard VPN connection between LC and ABI. LC and ABI have 2 internet connections. SP, EP, FW, and PL each have one internet connection.

    If the primary internet connection goes down at either LC or ABI and failover occurs to the secondary internet connection, is there a way to set up the WireGuard VPN connections so that they also failover without purchasing some 3rd party application?

    Thanks.

    @whitetiger-it said in FreeRadius Interfaces:

    @nogbadthebad
    Let's see if I understand correctly.
    The switch, instead of querying the RADIUS on the firewall IP, queries a virtual (and therefore non-existent) IP that you have associated with the localhost of the firewall itself.

    Nope its a virual address tied to the localhost interface, if I had bound my FreeRadius to the LAN interface IP and I had shut it down then devices couldn't authenticate.

    Screenshot 2021-11-11 at 11.24.29.png

    Good idea, but I didn't understand why.
    The IP of the firewall is however known, for example because it is the Gateway of the network, there is DHCP, DNS, etc.

    However, my question remains open.
    Is the RADIUS interface the network on which the users are located or the one on which the servers/devices interrogated by the user are located?

    From what you have posted, it seems to me that it is the second answer.

    The radius interface is the IP address that Radius requests are sent to, as per "Enter the IP address (e.g. 192.168.100.1) of the listening interface. If you choose * then it means all interfaces. (Default: *)"

    You can point your devices to any IP address any pfSense interface you want if you leave the IP address as the default of *

    @rajid Followup:
    I've also found that I need to add a filter to allow mdns packets to "pass", otherwise they end up blocked. I'm still not seeing any mdns responses using the avahi programs (such as "avahi-browse -a"), but "tcpdump" shows the packets are there on the wire.

    Did you look in the suricata.log for the interface to see why Suricata was failing to start? You can view that log on the LOGS VIEW tab. The log is overwritten with each startup attempt of Suricata. It will contain the status of the last startup attempt of Suricata for the interface.

    Was it complaining specifically about failure to allocate Stream Memcap memory? With lots of cores, that value must be increased substantially from the default. You can search on Google for info on configuring the value. I seem to recall running across a formula quite a long time ago that let you calculate how large that value needed to be for a given number of cores.

    @4920441-0

    If anyone is asking why this is a problem:

    I try to configure three tunnels which should connect 4 OSPF routers with each other....

    For the first tunnel I could allow 224.0.0.0/6 but what should I do with the other tunnels?

    Thanks a lot..

    Cheers

    @tsmalmbe said in Snort Inline Mode caused WAN to drop every few minutes:

    @bmeeks A minute to review this question of mine and comment? Highly appreciated as always.

    The answer is very simple: switch to Legacy Mode if you want to use blocking with Snort (or Suricata) on your hardware.

    I've said on this board innumerable times that Inline IPS Mode relies on the kernel netmap device, and the kernel netmap device relies on well-written support within the hardware NIC driver. If that support is not well-written (meaning bug free), then netmap does not work reliably. That in turn means Inline IPS Mode does not work reliably. "Not working reliably" can manifest in ways from simple disruption of traffic on the configured interface to potentially a complete lockup of the firewall. There is a warning dialog that is displayed at the top of the INTERFACE SETTINGS page when you switch an interface to Inline IPS Mode and save the change. The message clearly says you may experience difficulties.

    You also have two installed packages that are likely not going to cooperate with the netmap kernel device: bandwidthd and softflowd. That's because when an interface is placed into netmap operation, it is disconnected from the kernel's control and placed under the the control of the app initiating the netmap connection. For the IPS/IDS packages, that would be Snort or Suricata.

    @gertjan Well, this forum post indicates that it is possible to install packages while offline. I think 'pkg add' will do the trick after uploading the package to the pfSense system.

    But thanks for clarifying for me about the fingerprints.

    @gertjan I just wish they used more of the SSD for items, it is alot faster over a hard drive of the past. Use that SSD for items that are not part of non stop scanning. Remember upper and lower memory blocks back with MS-DOS 3.11 in the 90s with a 14mhz 8088 processor? It seems to me the resources that are available like that huge SSD are not being used as much as they could. I do understand the need for speed with the packet processing. However I can't stop wondering what could be put on that drive and not be constantly ready in NVRAM.
