      Hello,

      I saw that I can track the IP connections of every IP but only for Limited time, is it possible to save same anywhere else (without syslog) or looking into any plaintext log?

      Thanks

        Logging firewall rule + syslog would do the job - why the "without syslog" requirement?

        You could also use pfflowd/softflowd to export netflow data to a netflow collector, but that may be overkill (and wouldn't be plain text)

          Hi,

          I don't want to set up an extra syslog server, I need the connection info at the pfsense webgui. Best would be an overview of radius user + ip + visited website

            Setup squid and run a proxy, this will give you the info you want.

            Lightsquid is the package you want;
            High perfomance web proxy report. Requires squid HTTP proxy.
