      Does "Enable Alias Table Popup" work for anyone as if i untick it and save not only does it have no effect but the tick is back when i got back into the settings on the homepage?

      I had one user complain about this a few months back, but couldn't figure out why its doing that. I suspect an issue with the browser or a conflict with another widget.

      What Browser are you using (Can you try a different browser)? and what widgets are enabled? Are you on 2.2.4? Full/Nano/Ramdisk installation? Do the other pfBNG widget settings work for you?

        Works fine for me.  In past versions of pfSense I had issues with most of the widgets not saving their settings.  It improved in later releases.  I'm on 2.2.4 right now without issue.

          To download from HE, you need to select the format as "html" or it will fail to download.

          Disable this list for 24hrs as HE is denying access (rate-limiting) because you probably have this list attempting to download every hour using the wrong download format.

          I came across this thread before attempting to make a new alias from HE data and made sure that HTML was selected before my first update and immediately received a 403 response. Just wondering if anyone else is using HE with any success.

              I would love to keep it ticked. Alas, it keeps unticking itself.

                Does the same on both Chrome and Safari on OS X (latest versions of each).

                I have the following widgets on the homepage:

                System Info, Interfaces, Services Status, Interface Statistics, Installed Packages, PFBlockerNG, Snort Alerts, Firewall Logs.

                PFsense 2.2.4 full all other widgets seem to work fine.

                Thanks

                Rob

                  I have multiple forwarded ports in different aliases (some are tcp only and others are udp only).  Is it possible to specify multiple aliases in "Enable Custom Port"?

                  Thanks

                    You should use one of the Alias list actions and create and manage your own firewall rules using those.

                      Pfblocker inserts the rule swith the name withpfB_Top_v4. Can I simply clone this rule in Firewall>Rules and specify my own alias?
                      This way I can reuse the list created by pfblocker. Will this cause a problem with pfblockerng?

                          When pfB_Top_v4 creates an Auto Firewall Rule, you can manually create another Rule and reference the same "pfB_Top_v4" table without issue…

                            Yes. I attempted to do another update and same results, 403.

                                    Hello,

                                    I have selected Germany in the Top20 list and defined it as Deny Inbound. However, snort is still picking up German ip address. Why isnt pfblocker blocking this ip address?

                                    Ip address in snort

                                    PfblockerNG

                                    Firewall rules

                                    Thanks

                                      Trumee - Snort sees all traffic regardless of pfSense firewall rules.  Even if you have zero allow inbound rules Snort still sees the attempted connection and will generate an alert block even if its already blocked by pfSense.

                                        Does the ip4 txt file care about double ip's?
                                        I mean if you have a txt:

                                        1.2.3.4
                                        2.3.4.5
                                        1.2.3.4

                                        will it work or does it require a unique list?
                                        Also if a list exist:
                                        192.168.1.200
                                        192.168.1.0/24
                                        does it work?

                                          Enable "De-Duplication" in the General Tab. This will remove all duplication's (Including CIDR). If you already have lists downloaded, you can make that change and then execute a "Force Reload".

                                            hi,

                                            outstanding work. Just stumbled about a little problem. I'm using pfblockerNG in combination with CARP. Settings should be synced to configured backup server - which i'm not sure they really get. I can clearly find the rules pfblocker added on the WAN-tab - but on the secondary firewall i can neither find selected entries in the individual tabs nor do filter list under "IPv4"-tab get synced.

                                            Am I doing something wrong - or must sees settings be performed additionally on the backup firewall?

                                            Thank you very much =)
