      .... work in progress ...

      I spent the last few days understanding logstash/grok to make this work somehow...
      tested under Ubuntu and pfsense 2.4.5-p1 and pfSense 2.5.0

      all the needed configuration files are available here
      https://github.com/kiokoman/pfsense-logstash-grafana
      contributions are welcome

      logstash will intercept syslog messages coming from pfSense (firewall and suricata), parse it and send it to influxdb after adding geo location based on source IP, this way worldmap panel can read it

        Good afternoon, how are you ?

        Could you exemplify how the installation works?
        I had doubts about the InfluxDB Database.
        and also the notes that we must make to collect data from the firewall and throw it into grafana / influxdb.

        Thanks.

          hello
          the instruction to install influx are here
          https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/introduction/install/
          github contain also screenshot of what you need to set on pfsense, inside the "images" folder.
          what are you unable to do specifically?
