    It's not a false positive, the AVAHI service on your pfSense is really advertising SFTP even if you don't have the SSH service running. To turn it off you have to edit the AVAHI configuration.

    You don't set source port requirements in the NAT rules. What the rule is now saying is "Perform the RDR only if the source port in the incoming packet is 80" (and of course the other requirements have to be met as well). This is never going to be true for regular HTTP traffic arriving to your end, the source port is going to be a randomly chosen port from range 1024:65535.

    Correct, Dirty COW only affects Linux.  BSD's (Net/Open/Free)BSD are not affected because they are not Linux.

    You can configure that on the client, or if you're using WPAD you can include the IP ranges and DIRECT keyword.  If you're using Transparent mode, you can use the Bypass Proxy for These Destination IPs option on squid's General page.  Lastly, the proper forum for squid & squidguard questions is the Cache/Proxy forum.

    Hi folks, Wondering if anyone is using Cisco SMB switch for the QoS setup for the Google fiber.  If so, it would be much appreciated if the setup/configuration can be shared. -rsa

    What would cause the issue with devices not getting automatically added to the ARP table on pfSense? Not getting the ARP broadcast from the switch. Diagnostics > Packet Capture on LAN_1 and see what's really going on.

    Harvy66, thanks for your reply. I didn't mention it, but my gateways are pretty stable, so it's definitely not the case. Also in the example I provided states was cleared for SSH connection which was made from local LAN to the BACKUP node only. No other states were affected.

    1. Yes. Backup the config, reinstall, and restore the config. When reinstalling, use the gmirror option in the installer to make the array. 2. There is a widget for gmirror status, and Diag > GEOM mirrors for status and disk management. If you have SMTP notifications enabled, it notifies on any status change of the mirror. The diag page also offers a way to forget disks, add disks, rebuild arrays, and so on. It doesn't let you create new mirrors, however.

    redis is only used by ntopng, and would only be exposed if the WAN rules were really sloppy or if the scanner was on LAN. Your LAN rules might be too permissive for you environment if the latter case is true. You should be blocking all access to the firewall's LAN interface except for services which must be accessed from LAN, such as DNS, icmp echo, maybe the GUI port and ntopng ports if you don't have a dedicated management network.
