    @Antibiotic No it’s not possible with NtopNG as it is not a Netflow collector. You need nProbe for that which will “translate” recieved netflows into flows that NtopNG understands and can visualize (with very very little detail might I add as Netflows has no additonal information apart from sender/reciever and volume). The NtopNG package and the product in general is more geared towards visualising and recording traffic details from actual packet captures. This contains MUCH more metadata about the sessions than netflows (DNS names, protocol information and myriads of other things). But pffSense Plus has a builtin Netflow exporter if you have an external netflow collector on hand.

    @wesley33taylor okay, now I have to ask, just due to being especially dense today, what and how did you do that? what do others need to change, so that there is written history for anyone else that might end up finding this thread and wanting to do the same, the usefulness of archival purposes and the desire to confirm I've done the same drive me to ask this. please advise.

    @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.

    Anyone else happen to notice that when configuring BFD, if you create a peer and select a profile - after save, re-edit the peer and the Profile is not represented. It appears as "None". You have to check the raw config to determine if the profile was actually assigned to the peer. This is on 2.8.1 (all packages up to date as of the date/time of this post). UPDATE: if re-edit and save (without re-configuring the profile none to what you want) - the save will strip the profile from the peer.

    Hi All, I use HAProxy to redirect to a range of https internal resources, this works really well at the moment through the WAN where I have source limits set up, and I can connect to the internal resources from limited external IP Addresses. Given I have tailscale I would like to basically be able to put custom dns entries in to point these hostnames to my pfsense tailscale IP4 address (100.89.148.118) but I am not having any luck getting this working. At the moment, I am just trying to connect to HAProxy using https://100.89.148.118 but it is getting blocked by the firewall. Sep 11 11:55:58 tailscale0 Default deny rule IPv4 (1000000103) 100.89.148.10:53148 100.89.148.118:443 TCP:S I have tried with and without NAT redirecting internally to 127.0.0.1, and I also have rules set up to allow any traffic to and from my tailnets (defined in an alias) but I still keep getting these connections from my other tailscale machines being blocked on the pfsense machine. Can someone give me some pointers on what I am missing because I can see the requests are coming through to the pfsense machine, and in theory the rules should allow it through but I cant see why they don't. I do have tailscale ACL in place, but clearly that is not an issue as the requests are making it through to the firewall. 0/0 B IPv4+6 TCP/UDP TailNets * TailNets * * none Allow across Tailnets 0/0 B IPv4+6 TCP/UDP * * * 443 (HTTPS) * none Allow Tailscale IP4 I also tried adding a EasyRule but because the tailscale0 interface doesn't exist in pfsense it throws an error and won't let me add that rule. Appreciate any help or tips, Cheers.

    resolved! Issue was the following I corrected a few things on your config: Your Outbound NAT configuration was malformed. I corrected it to utilize Hybrid mode and configured a single Outbound NAT for your Wireguard connection, which should be much cleaner. I updated your routing table to be Automatic and switched to Policy-based routing within the firewall rules under Firewall --> Rules --> LAN I updated the name of the interface for the Wireguard tunnel to be called TORGUARD and set the MSS clamping to 1350. This can probably be bumped back up to 1400, but I wanted to make sure the clamping was small enough to avoid fragmentation. I cleaned up some redundant firewall rules and a few other "odds and ends".

    @submicron: Spamd doesn't work at the application layer, so there will never be a way of white-listing by email address, As for white-listing, I manually created my own white-lists for gmail (hint: look up their spf records).  At some point I'd like to see the white-list gui extended a little more than it is right now but its not been a huge priority. I understand the first point, I'm suggesting a script that goes through and looks for pre-defined e-mail addresses in the mail and whitelists servers based on those addresses. I've got a script that grabs the addresses off Gmails SPF records once a day, and that's working pretty well now. I'm glad you're interested in beefing up the GUI for spamd, let me know when you want to get around to it, and i'll see if I can't find some $$$ for a bounty. Chris

    @rocky: Thank you for replies. The ip of yahoo download server varies from place to place and have the form: http://<ip>/some-links-to-yahoo-file-server This address is generated when users download file from their email I want that user cannot enter some porn sites by type IP address of the site in address bar. I choose this option from squidGuard Option. Then now user cannot download file/receive file via yahoo mail / Yim. ==> this is my problem! Thank you again!</ip> Test this: create custom destination "my_vip_sites" and add yahoo mail DOMAIN and other sites what you want (& save). And select in ACL (or Default) this Destination as 'white'.

    1. yes (for backup) 2. yes 3. yes. but if you 'installed packages' list is empty - you must install thit new 4. yes. If you have power problem, you can lost system files and not possible diagnostic you problems. After restoring system (it. 1-4) you will be sure what this files good.

    Squid is set up without any auth and the check box for "Transparent" is checked It is set up with "Proxy interface= LAN" "Allow users on interface" is un-checked, with my subnet added to the "Allowed subnets" in the "Access Control" tab. SG is set up with the shallalist.tar.gz SG is set up (currently) without any ACL's SG under the "Default" tab is set to block every thing (though I have tried it many different ways) Any thoughts as to what I should try changing to get it to work and work transparently?

    Found a post regarding Bandwidthd with a similar issue.  Is there a similar solution for my problem with pfflowd? Hi, thanks for this great package, I have it up running just fine but have a little problem I got 2 WAN's and a wired LAN and a wireless LAN that is bridged to the wired and as such with monitoring on the LAN I am seeing the local traffic between the wired and wireless. I see that there is a field to enter in filter rules but I got no idea how to format them to ignore local traffic. Googling hasn't turned up anything that I can follow, so has anyone got a link to a page that shows all the options and how to use them or can even just give me the command needed to filter local traffic. Thanks, Dan. Solution: SPECIFYING THE LIBPCAP FILTER if you'd like more control over what traffic is counted, you can specify a Manuel filter to be passed to libpcap.  You can use this to remove certain IPs or only graph certain IPs, or limit the graphs to certain kinds of traffic.  You should always specify "ip" in the filter.  For example: filter "ip and host 64.215.40.1"
