@blackkep That's because you haven't gone to a domain worthy of ringing the alarm and no, you don't need to restart Snort. The recommendation is to put Snort on LAN for more informed info.

You say "restart Snort". When you go to the INTERFACES tab in Snort when the alerts tab is blank, is Snort showing as running or not (green triangle or red "X")? If not, then you need to look in the pfSense system log and determine why it stopped. Something should be logged there.
If it is showing as running (with the green triangle instead of a red "X"), then something else is at play.
