      Netflow is great for watching passed traffic and works excellent with PRTG for visualization. For blocked traffic though, the only mechanism (as far as I understand) is the firewall syslog. What tools are you using to visualize blocked traffic, if any?

      Why visualize blocked traffic? Well I would like to see what type of attempts or attacks are most common, and where they are most often coming from. The firewall logs of blocked traffic are so huge that there is no way to read through them. I am looking for a tool to summarize and/or visualize the data on blocked traffic so that it is more meaningful. Is anyone else doing this?

        There are lots of people using elk stack with pfsense.. There was a thread awhile back someone went through bringing up a elkstack, I brought up one with all the current versions of elk.. I was going to release it via an OVA for those too lazy to do it themselves, etc.  But have not had time to create any visualizations for it, and now got a new toy amazon echo been playing with so not sure when get back to it ;)

        Also someone else brought up a monitor tool, that is pretty slick - kind of like dshields and I think he has plans of adding visualizations to that.. The thread is in the general section.  You could also send your logs to dshields, I do this and they make graphs for you and send you a nice email daily with totals of ports hit, etc.  Graphs don't seem to be currently work? Hmmm
