Are you running pfBlocker with DNS-BL? If so you need to use Python mode with kea2unbound.

Hi @stephenw10 ,
Thank you for the quick response.
I’ve already switched to Python mode—are there any other settings or options I should be aware of?
-
Using Python mode should be sufficient there. You can also increase the PHP memory limit in System > Advanced > Misc but you shouldn't need to.

Thanks! Just wondering—what’s the recommended PHP memory limit?
By the way, I’m using a Netgate 8200 MAX.
Appreciate the help!
-
Then default value of 512MB should be sufficient for everything.

Thank you!
