      Hi 2.2 snapshot testers.  The Suricata package for pfSense should now install and run properly on the 2.2 snapshots.  It works for me in my VM testing environment, but I welcome any input from other testers.

      An update for Snort is also posted for review and approval by the Core Team.  Once that update is merged, Snort should function on pfSense 2.2 as well.

          Thank you for the report.  There are several threads in the PACKAGES forum related to Suricata if you want to try out all the features.

            I have just installed suricata on

            2.2-ALPHA (i386)
built on Wed May 21 00:31:15 CDT 2014

            i hope this guide https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,73353.0.html?PHPSESSID=0719ebf82ce96c7419052150defe9179  is good to get me started :)

            edit  seems to be working fine, it will get me some time to learn how to correctly read the logs (i have too many SURICATA ICMPv6 unknown type maybe i should suppress them )

              Hi

              Some testing.

              In general don't work very good because i have a pppoe connection, i read that there are a bug in this (is a no go for me), and it fills my /var RAM partition. 82Mb in suricata.log in the interface pppoe and in ppp (4G connection) have a suricata.log with 12Mb.

              I can't enable Barnyard2 with MySQL (MariaDB 10) using root user and give pfsense authorization. Don't know why. Need populate Banyard2 database with Structure?

              In Log Mgmt i can't save if i don't enable Auto Log Management, error: "The value for 'Unified2 Log Limit' must be an integer value greater than zero." shows a grayed out default integer value  (32) i change to 16 Mb but need to enable Auto Log Management to change and save.

              I have to enable interfaces after reboot system, they start disable, maybe because are (ppp)oe? my hyper-v teste machine restart with interface enable (WAN - DHCPv4.)

              Thanks

                I can't enable Barnyard2 with MySQL (MariaDB 10) using root user and give pfsense authorization. Don't know why. Need populate Banyard2 database with Structure?

                In Log Mgmt i can't save if i don't enable Auto Log Management, error: "The value for 'Unified2 Log Limit' must be an integer value greater than zero." shows a grayed out default integer value  (32) i change to 16 Mb but need to enable Auto Log Management to change and save.

                I have to enable interfaces after reboot system, they start disable, maybe because are (ppp)oe? my hyper-v teste machine restart with interface enable (WAN - DHCPv4.)

                Thanks

                Those "invalid signature" errors are most likely due to running Snort VRT rules with Suricata.  Suricata can read and interpret most Snort VRT rules, but not all.  There are some rule options and keywords that only Snort recognizes and will process.  Suricata will perform better using one of the two Emerging Threats rules packages (ET-OPEN or ET-PRO).

                Suricata does not properly recognize PPPoE interfaces.  This is a limitation of the underlying binary.  Hopefully it will be addressed by the upstream developers in future updates.

                You do have to perform some manual setup steps in MySQL in order for Barnyard2 to connect and work.  Follow the instructions for configuring the database for Snorby. There are also some other tutorials on the web for running the Snort SQL script that will configure the DB for Barnyard2.

                The LOGS MGMT tab issue is a bug.  I will take care of it, but it will be in the next release.  In the interim, you should be able to just enable the AUTO LOG MGMT feature.  It would be a good idea in your situation because you seem to have limited space on the /var partition where logs are stored.

                Finally, rather than us cluttering up the 2.2 Snapshot issues thread with Suricata-specific issues, since Suricata now installs and will start up on 2.2, please post any follow-up issues with the package on 2.2 in the Packages sub-forum.

                Thanks,
                Bill

                  How about other types of "semi-virtual" interfaces: VPN connections, failover interfaces like laggN, etc.?
                  i.e. is this specific to PPPoE, or specific to anything that's not a "bare metal" interface?

                    I don't know. I really do not have all the various interface types available to test on.  PPPoE was reported by users.  I just did some more detailed investigation a week or so back and found that it is an issue in the underlying Suricata binary.  FreeBSD (and thus, by extension, pfSense) reports a PPPoE interface as having Data Link Type NULL (or DLT_NULL).  Other operating systems report a PPP link with different Data Link Type codes.  Suricata is not currently written to support a returned Data Link Type of DLT_NULL.

                      Is there an easy, user-level way of testing what Data Link Type various interfaces report?
                      A command like ifconfig or something like that?

                        If you mean determining what data link types Suricata supports, those are in the Suricata source code module.

                        
#ifndef DLT_EN10MB
#define DLT_EN10MB 1
#endif

/* taken from pcap's bpf.h */
#ifndef DLT_RAW
#ifdef __OpenBSD__
#define DLT_RAW     14  /* raw IP */
#else
#define DLT_RAW     12  /* raw IP */
#endif
#endif

/** libpcap shows us the way to linktype codes
 * \todo we need more & maybe put them in a separate file? */
#define LINKTYPE_ETHERNET   DLT_EN10MB
#define LINKTYPE_LINUX_SLL  113
#define LINKTYPE_PPP        9
#define LINKTYPE_RAW        DLT_RAW
#define PPP_OVER_GRE        11
#define VLAN_OVER_GRE       13

                        As you see, DLT_NULL is not one of the support link types.

                          I think rcfa is asking if he can see the data stream like in wireshark to see what data link types are in his network?

                            Kind of both. Since I'm not familiar with low-level IP/network programming, I wasn't even aware of these Data Link Types. So when it first was said that it can't handle DLT_NULL I assumed that some interfaces just don't set a type (hence NULL), and that the software isn't able to handle that case.

                            From the code snippet however, it seems that there might be an (arbitrary?) number of DLTs, and that the software handles certain specific types, which seem to be DLT_RAW, DLT_EN10MB, 9, 11, 13, 113

                            Knowing that, the question is, given the various links I have (IPSec, OpenVPN, GRE tunnels, LAGG, etc.) how can I know (without trying to dissect source code), what link types these have, and thus, if the software will or won't work with them…

                              Start a tcpdump capture on each interface and then quickly stop it.  The data link type will be printed in the header information tcpdump prints when it starts.
