Need explanation on the difference on login

[Coyote1Abe]

Greetings I am fairly new to pfsense and I need some guidance why is my login registered in different areas, example one login was in the /index.php and the other one was on /suricata/suricata_interface.php. Is this normal or should I take caution with this?, as you can see both logins were two minutes apart from the same computer.

Might be a browser caching issue -- maybe with stored credentials and auto-login enabled for the browser.

There is nothing in the Suricata package at all related to logging in to pfSense. The suricata_interfaces.php page is the default landing page when you click Suricata under the SERVICES menu in pfSense.

Did you perhaps have multiple tabs open? Or maybe had an open, but expired, tab on the Suricata Interfaces page and then opened a different tab to login to the firewall GUI?
