    After some time I have finally installed my ELK log system ( I need only to adjust the appearance ) and obviously  it doesn't log all traffic by default (states are not sent trough syslog) but you need to mark in every firewall rules "Log packets that are handled by this rule". I know that this thread is old, but it can be useful for those looking for logging states know this. PS: ELK seems hard to configure, but the result seems to be amazing  ;D

    In PFSense 2.3.1 version, PHP have the updated time zones and the webConfigurator time is correct, but the console not, thus, the LOGs show the incorrect time…  :o I fix with this: mkdir zoneinfo cd zoneinfo wget http://pkg.freebsd.org/freebsd:11:x86:64/latest/All/zoneinfo-2016.d.txz xz -d zoneinfo-2016.d.txz tar xf zoneinfo-2016.d.tar cd usr/share/zoneinfo tar czf ../../../zoneinfo.tgz * cd ../../../ scp zoneinfo.tgz root@192.168.0.1:/usr/share ssh root@192.168.0.1 8 cd /usr/share/zoneinfo tar czf ../zoneinfo.bkp.tgz * mv ../zoneinfo.tgz . tar xzf zoneinfo.tgz After reboot… The file /usr/share/zoneinfo.bkp.tgz is a backup of original files.

    For torrenting, since they'll use any and every port available, i'd specify the http/https ports in the floating firewall rules, and then traffic-shape the hell out of the subsequent catch-all.

    Some (most? all?) vendor provided DSL routers are capable of being switched into bridge mode. Google your router make and model and "bridge mode"

    @ReFleX: Wow, thanks for this post dude i was figuring this out to. I want to use rdp with a reverse tunnel from the company network. I was close to the sollution but the portforward part was missing! Iam gonna test this! Let me know if you have any questions. I am not sure if I am understanding you right, but I don't think what I did here is going to be of help to you, but if it is, great !

    On System > General you can check "Log Filter" to have that box always expanded. Due to its size it is hidden by default to keep the focus on the logs while keeping the controls at the top.

    I messed around with the IGMP Proxy so much that I gave up on it. I added firewall rules and everything to no avail. @johnpoz: Easy solution would be to put the devices that want to talk to each other via multicast in the same layer 2. Are you saying on the same VLAN on the switch? I could do this, but any VM I create I want to be on the "server" subnet and not LAN.

    I get the same error message (arpresolve llinfo etc…) during an upgrade from 2.2.6 => 2.3 and 2.3.1 install. The following commands below would restore the LAN connection, but upon reboot, I loose my LAN connectivity again. ifconfig bge1 down ifconfig bge1 up When connectivity is  lost its affects both the LAN and CARP addresses. Not sure what to look at here, but I imagine it is a driver issue. When I blew away the 2.3.1 upgrade to factory defaults the LAN address stayed up (Not sure with CARP) so I'm guessing some carry over isn't playing well from the 2.2.6 land. Thanks!
