        This update will show up for pfSense-2.4.5 RELEASE soon. We are giving it a week or two for shakedowns in the 2.5-DEVEL branch before merging it into 2.4.5-RELEASE.

            sadly the telegraf stuff does not work anymore, i need to investigate.
            the data are sent from suricata to the socket but telegraf does not grab it

              I didn't have a telgraf installation to test with. All I did in the PHP code was add code to create the entry in suricata.yaml that generates a separate EVE log with the "unix_stream" output type.

              Let me know what you discover. Perhaps some changes are needed on the Suricata side ???

                  i think there is something on telegraf

                  Suricata is certainly spewing stats out through the socket, so that part is working. I agree it is likely on the telegraf side. I'm not familiar with telegraf having never used it. Are there some debugging options to have telegraf log someplace the raw data it is getting from the socket?

                  Here is the original Feature Request: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/10421#change-47203. The creator of the request claimed to have it working (although he had to manually edit the suricata.yaml file). I duplicated in the PHP code what he did on the Suricata side.

                  EDIT: never mind, just realized you were the creator of the Feature Request ... ☺

                    yes, i was the one requesting it, it was working at that time, maybe it was before the upgrade to freebsd 12.1-stable

                    that's part of the output from suricata

                    followed by

                    read(9,0xc00095a000,10412032)                    ERR#35 'Resource temporarily unavailable'

                    well, i have no idea, i also tried with Telegraf 1.15.0 but same error/problem

                      FYI. As of today (Thursday, July 16th), barring no major issues showing up the DEVEL branch, the plan is to migrate this 5.0.3 Suricata package update over to pfSense-2.4.5_p1 RELEASE Monday or Tuesday of next week (July 20th or 21st).

                        @bmeeks maybe i found something,
                        the suricata plugin of telegraf is expecting \n at the end of the line but i think it's never coming,
                        it seems to be truncated at the end
                        any settings from suricata that can solve this?

                        example coming from unix socket

                        {"timestamp":"2020-07-17T10:08:18.856758+0200" ......."invalid_checksum":0,"no_flow":0,"syn":1044,"synack":454,"r <- alway end like this

                        example coming from eve.json

                        {"timestamp":"2020-07-17T10:35:00.974605+0200".......<{"expectations":0},"flow":{"memuse":8443384}}}}}  <--- good output

                            Ah-ha! It was truncating the stream. FreeBSD has so darn many system tunables ... 😕

                              problem solved, i need to increse this

                              sysctl -w net.local.stream.recvspace=16384
                              sysctl -w net.local.stream.sendspace=16384

                              now i see data on my grafana

                              Added a section to my initial RELEASE NOTES post detailing the need to check and probably adjust these system tuneables. Thanks for the investigation and feedback!
