NETDATA doesn’t work in PFsense 2.6.0
-
Hi everyone,
This is Marius, from Netdata.
I noticed the topic here and would like to see if I can help.
We don't currently support pfSense officially, but we are open to a discussion around that.
@johnpoz Are you the right person to start a discussion on this topic? Would Netgate be interested in collaborating with us?I look forward to your reply.
best regards,
Marius -
@marius-netdata No I wouldn't be the guy.. Just a mod here, You should prob start conversation with @stephenw10 - he for sure would know who specific in the org to start talking too.
-
Thank you, @johnpoz !
Hi @stephenw10 would you be open to a quick chat on this topic? If yes, when would it be a good time for you?
-
Hi @johnpoz,
Do you have Stephen's contact information, by any chance?
I'm wondering if you could reach out to him directly, because I'm not sure he's seen this thread.thanks a lot,
Marius -
@marius-netdata I will bring it up in chat with him.
-
@marius-netdata I chatted with Steve just a few minutes ago, he had missed this thread. He should be reaching out to you.
-
Yup, let me see if anyone is using it internally already.
What did you have in mind here?

Hi, Steve!
First of all, thanks for your willingness to help!
Netdata would like to see if there is any possibility of adding native packages for netdata in pfSense?
We'd like to know what would be required and how we can help to make that happen.
We are getting quite a few inquiries from pfSense users regarding this topic, and we believe that may be beneficial for both parties :)That being said, I look forward for a future collaboration!
best wishes,

Still looking at what we might be able to do here. In the mean time it looks like this was working in 2.6 and now is not because the various instructions are referencing the FreeBSD 12 Latest repo. That now contains a version of netdata which depends on Python 3.9 and pfSense 2.6/22.05 is running 3.8. If you use the pkgs from 12 Quarterly instead I expect that to work.

I made it work.
Use all repos from python 38.
im trying to paste the link with the repos but the anti-spam is blocking.

Lets feed the anti-spam with goodwill :)

I've created a feature request on redmine for this:
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13809 -
Could this be made to serve any specific client on what he is seeing?
Just thinking of a shared pfsense environment where different clients are served in VLAN's.
Then feed that data into a website available for the specific client to login and see traffic/alerts realtime incl. an attack/traffic map.?
